Face/Off

Action thriller in which an FBI agent agrees to have the face of a terrorist grafted onto his own head in order to discover the location of an enormous bomb. John Travolta stars.

Dedicated FBI agent Sean Archer and psychotic killer Castor Troy are deadly enemies. Yet, just as Archer thinks Troy's reign of terror is over, he learns of a threat to wipe out Los Angeles with a deadly biological weapon. It seems the only way to get Castor's brother, Pollux, to talk about the lethal time bomb is a radical surgical procedure that will give Archer Troy's face and voice. Castor is lying comatose in a hospital bed, so what could possibly go wrong?
