Everything is not as it seems for a man who recovers from a plane crash in which his family is killed. After plastic surgery and rehabilitation, he determines that he worked for a secret agency for which he was an assassin. His former boss puts him back to work to assassinate a political leader, but when he proves unable to pull the trigger, it is he who becomes the target for assassins. As he avoids capture, the story unfolds about his true past and the reason why he has a tattoo of "chilly willy" inside his lip.

Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Lee Bartholomew (spoilers??)Without that stupid backstory, this movie might have been pretty good. Somehow though, the folks in the looney barn decided to make the film with a sci fi slant. Can you imagine a very bad crook, having plastic surgery to look like Alec Baldwin? Were they senile?The film does pretty good to keep us guessing, but when it's revealed about the brainwashing/plastic surgery crap, the movie goes to hell in a handbasket. Certainly better than some of Steven Seagal's films, but stupid nonetheless.5/106/10 (story 1/10) Entertainment: 5/10 Replayable: 2/10
senni The movie was awful. The production company should be required to pay a fine for wasting electricity transmitting this nonsense.There were too many holes in the plot. Why would the DOJ send a killer out to assassinate a world leader? If they weren't the DOJ, why would they send someone they thought would not do the job? To quote Butch Cassidy, "Who are those guys?" Apparently, the director does not know either because he never told us.The characters were unbelievable. They did not behave in any way that seemed to fit who they allegedly were. With the exception of the doctor, none of the characters were particularly compelling or likeable.If you want to waste money on the electricity required to watch this movie, feel free. Otherwise, run the opposite direction.
speechmasters Second Nature will not go down as one of the worst tv movies of 2003, but perhaps the worst of All Time. Formulaic, derivative, and every performance phoned in, from far, far away. Everyone associated with this project should have a hard time looking in the mirror.
chbs Short summary - no spoilers.Baldwin plays an assassin who recover from a plane crash where all his family dies. But he can't kill on his first assignment after the recovery and find out something is not what is seems to be.I find this movie at the local video rental store under the name "Manden uden navn" which in English would be "The man without a name".Baldwin does not have one of his best performances in this TV movie but it is okay as a time killer for a week night.I gave it 5 IMDB stars.
