Eraser
He will erase your past to protect your future.
Arnold Schwarzenegger plays John Kruger, a U.S. Marshal who "erases" the lives and identities of people entering the Witness Protection Program. Kruger must protect an executive (Vanessa Williams) who's uncovered a deal to put a new superweapon in the wrong hands. It's a do-or-die assignment. So Kruger makes sure he does in a nonstop action spree that includes plunging from an airplane after his parachute, turning ravenous alligators into instant luggage, outbraining ultratech security and outbrawning killers with hypervelocity weapons. For power-packed excitement, Eraser is unstoppable.

I never did finish Eraser, because the first hour and a half i easily predicted what would happen play by play. I figured the ending would be the same as most movies. Arnold would save the day and Vanessa would live to see another day.
Eraser for me was a tale of cat and mouse games, cheap thrilled fighting sequences and predicatable plot. I say skip it... but that just my sole opinion alone.Arnolds Attempt At More Serious Action - kav2001c
Decent Arnold action flick where Arnie plays the Eraser, a man who makes people dissapear
Of course he meets someone who is involved in something much bigger than they at first suspect, and now he has to fight the system (by enlisting the help of some Italian mobsters) to stop it
Once you get past the silly conspiracy stuff, the action scenes are interesting, and the plot is sufficiently contrived to keep it moving until the end
Maybe worth a rental if you are in the mood~ ONE OF THE BEST OPENING SEQUENCES TO AN ARNOLD ADVENTURE YET ~ 4 Stars ~ - SqueakyChair
SNAPSHOT: Some terrific sky-diving footage and special effects. Fast paced. Intrigue and plot somewhat predictable but pulse pounding nevertheless. A god fun ride.
MORE THOUGHTS: Arnold has made better action yarns but this one is a great fun anyway. If you don't like Arnold don't rent this. Despite the only 3 1/2 stars given this is more than a rainy day film. It's rating is in comparison to other Arnold films. See below.
~~[Pls.Note: THIS REVIEW is of many viewings of BOTH the MOVIE CHANNEL TV and the DVD itself]~~
Might i suggest from ZIP.ca
" True Lies "

and the marvellous "Total Recall"
