"XIII" The Movie...........

Hi guys
I just finished watching a movie called "XIII: The Conspiracy" that I picked up at Family Dollar a few days ago for five bucks and I really enjoyed it! I'd never heard of it before and I doubt it got a theatrical release.
I won't give anything away, but the plot involves Presidential assassination,the NSA, Iraq, mind-wiping, government coverups,false flags- in other words, all the stuff ATSers know and love!
It doesn't have any major actors in it other than Stephen Dorff and Val Kilmer, but all the actors do a fine job.
Have any of you guys seen this?If so, I'd be curious to know what you thought of it....

I may watch it ... thanks ... I didnt realize it might be good when I got it

This sounds like its based on the game XIII. Anyways i dont think this should be on this topic =] try the media section this is not a conspiracy.

Ok sorry.Guess I just figured since it actually has the word "conspiracy" in the title, and since the entire film is about a "conspiracy", it would be ok to put it in "General Conspiracies"..........

I looked it up on IMDB, seems it was a made for TV Mini-Series. It got a 6.5 out of 10 stars on IMDB.

The first female US President Sally Sheridan is shot dead by a sniper during her Veterans Day speech. Her assassin narrowly escapes the scene with his life, national security hot on his heels - or so it seems. Three months later, an elderly couple discover the body of a wounded man in a tree, wearing a parachute. The young man (Dorff) cannot remember the slightest thing about his own identity. The only clue is a tattoo on his neck, "XIII". Meanwhile, in the Whitehouse, government intelligence is still conducting the search for the President's killer. With the elections just weeks away, a confirmed suspect could swing the vote for the administration. Hours after XIII's location is picked up by covert intelligence, elite special ops forces are swarming the couple's house in Cape Fear. Running on adrenaline and instinct, XIII tactically takes out the soldiers one by one. On the run, clinging to one desperate clue after another, XIII begins to piece back his life, fragments of his memory returning. Finally captured...

the rest is here:

Yeah I watched that last year on TV. From what I remember it was pretty good for a network TV miniseries. (Not that this is saying a lot.)

The VIII was a tattoo or branding wasn't it?

Thanks for reminding me about it...I may have to buy that for a rainy day.

Yes the conspirators had Roman numerals tattooed near their left collar-bone.
I'm kind of surprised that was on network TV, considering the subject matter and how well-made it was....
