Every rating
A small-town stoner lives a contentedly hazy life with his girlfriend, completely unaware that he is actually a highly trained, government-engineered sleeper agent. When his program is marked for termination, assassins are sent to eliminate him. The attack triggers his suppressed skills and memories, forcing him to violently defend himself and his loved ones while trying to understand who he really is.
