The Government gave her a choice. Death. Or life as an assassin. Now, there's no turning back.

She is society's worst nightmare. A scruffy, ferocious, drug-addicted misfit, she's been convicted of murder and sentenced to die. But a covert government agency may be able to transform her into a sleek, cool-as-ice assassin. Her choice: learn to kill on command - or die as the courts have declared. Bridget Fonda (Single White Female, Jackie Brown) stars as Maggie in this thriller directed by John Badham (WarGames, Stakeout). Maggie is dressed to kill, trained to survive and set loose in a deadly world - where unexpected romance can complicate things even more. This stylish hit co-stars Gabriel Byrne, Dermot Mulroney, Anne Bancroft and Harvey Keitel.
