Second Nature is a British production filmed mostly in the UK. Alec Baldwin plays an assassin working covertly for the U.S. government, who's recently recovered from injuries suffered in a plane crash in which his wife and two young daughters were killed. His first assignment upon returning to work goes badly wrong, and he subsequently discovers that his employers are trying to kill him. But whilst on the run, he begins to realise that aspects of his past don't make sense, and he may not be who he thinks he is.
More interested in suspense as opposed to action, Second Nature is an entertaining thriller, with several unexpected twists. A large part of the fun in seeing various familiar British faces turn up in blink-and-you'll-miss-it bit parts: for example, Casualty's Georgina Bouzova as an airport check-in girl, and Lucy Punch from Hot Fuzz as a car hire rep. The biggest surprise is TV presenter and occasional actress Daisy Donovan, looking absolutely stunning in a small but important role as a woman from Baldwin's past. The camera positively adores her in this movie.
