If you want to see Mr. Matthew Fox from Lost in some other flick check out this one. Besides him it has a pretty strong acting crew and interesting approach to directing and editing.  Director changed a bit the original script since Sigourney Weaver and Forest Whitaker joined the team. It follows an attempt to assassinate the president of the US from eight different angles. It reminds me a bit of 24 but still it has its own vibe that is hard to describe. There is a lot of action, intense scenes and suspense, although it is questionable how it all ended, since the end is bit weak, but that is arbitrary. Good production, action and plot and you got yourself one interesting flick if you are into this genre. Enjoy.

Director: Pete Travis

Cast: Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox, Forest Whitaker, Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt, Eduardo Noriega

Rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 

Fun Stuff: In the original script, the tourist was a Russian named Lewicki. When Forest Whitaker auditioned for a different role, Pete Travis was so impressed that he rewrote the tourist as an American and offered the role to him.
