Plots(1)
Mike Howell (Jesse Eisenberg) is an ordinary, unmotivated slacker who lives in a small north-western town with his tomboyish girlfriend, Phoebe Larson (Kristen Stewart). Mike works as a clerk at the grocery store and is shocked one day by the incredible ninja-like fighting powers he unleashes on two car jackers. Unknown to Mike, he is a highly trained lethal sleeper agent whose memory has been erased and Phoebe is his covert handler. Both are in danger when a rogue CIA agent (Topher Grace) decides to terminate the sleeper program, and Mike along with it. The CIA leaks a fake malaria outbreak to the media and quarantines the town, cutting the power and releasing hell in the form of helicopters, drone strikes and worst of all, a new breed of deranged killer agents. But Mike’s latent skills have been ‘activated’ and he lets fly with a torrent of kick-assery he didn’t know he was capable of. (Roadshow Entertainment)
