Skip it. This is a mid-tier action flick with a genuinely cool premise—Kevin Costner's memories implanted in Ryan Reynolds' criminal body could've been wild—but it squanders the concept on forgettable spy-thriller mechanics and lacks the style or wit to make the fish-out-of-water angle sing. There are better ways to spend your evening.

Plot

CIA Agent Bill Pope is on a mission to track down a shadowy hacker named 'The Dutchman'. When he gets mysteriously killed, an experimental procedure transfers his memories into a dangerous ex-convict. When he wakes up Pope's memories, his mission is to eliminate The Dutchman before the hacker launches ICBMs and starts World War III.
