Jack Shaw (Donald Sutherland) has experienced the terror first-hand. He's a top CIA agent who's tracked international killer-for-hire Carlos "The Jackal" Sanchez for over twenty years and barely survived Carlos' devastating bombing of a Parisian cafe. Now, he finally gets a break when he discovers Carlos' dead ringer: American naval officer and dedicated family man Annibal Ramirez (Aidan Quinn). With the aid of his Israeli Intelligence counterpart, Amos (Ben Kingsley), Jack trains Annibal to impersonate Carlos through a series of harrowing physical and psychological exercises and draw the real killer out of hiding and into an elaborate trap.

One of the best movies I've ever seen. They got the terrorist and the one that didn't kill the spider was the navy guy. THIS IS A TRUE STORY.

It was good, I find myself puzzled tho. Did they really catch him or did he get away with it? He killed a spider in the beginning and he almost killed one in the end. Makes me believe he may not be dead, this was a very interesting film. 4 stars.

Better than I expected
