The Assignment (1997)

A Naval officer is a lookalike of a feared terrorist. He is proposed the task of impersonating said terrorist. The plan is having the Soviets believe said terrorist has betrayed them.

Awful thriller, with a screenplay which follows a very clichéd path. A formal quibble: practically every other sequence begins with a plongée, for some reason; it is very unsettling.

Rating: 13
