Ben Affleck stars in this surprisingly good sci-fi thriller. It is not too far into the future and copyright law has gone that much too far. They can no longer trust their own employees to keep their work a secret, so they enter into agreements with scientists and engineers agreeing to have their memories erased once their time is up.

However, the unwitting contractors don't know what they are signing up to until they have had a tracer inplanted. Affleck soon regrets this when his latest project leaves him pennyless except for a bag of tricks which seem to come in spookily handy.

An action packed and entertaining film which I wish I had seen in the cinema. Well worth renting.
