SALUDES Don't expect any great acting performances, from any of the actors or actresses, in `Second Nature'; because there aren't any. Alec Baldwin, who has the starring role, usually gives a far better performance that he offers in this movie. Therefore, one might assume the script itself is simply not a good performance vehicle. Powers Boothe's lackluster performance might also be explained by this.However, the movie is worth watching for one reason; the plot. For the first half of the movie, one might think the plot is simply full of holes that never get filled. But, this is not the case. As the movie progresses, you might find yourself saying ` oh ya, I should have seen that coming'. So, don't give up on this film in the first half. Just keep watching; you'll see what I mean.

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.
