The Long Kiss Goodnight
Eight years ago she lost her memory. Now, a detective must help her remember the past before it buries them both. What's forgotten is not always gone.
After eight years of amnesia, schoolteacher Samantha Cain (Davis) learns she was once a lethal assassin for the CIA... and now her former employers want her dead. Pursued by a hi-tech army of corrupt government renegades, Samantha teams up with a wise-cracking detective (Jackson) who helps her uncover her past before it buries them both.

Second time, just as enjoyable - Drew777
I haven't seen this movie for probably ten years and loved it again.
Geena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson are hilarious together.
When most movies fail at combining humour and action, this one handles it perfectly.
There's enough mystery in it so you don't know what's going to happen along the way.
Two hours well spent.

OK, it's fluff, but the movie is golden. The exploration of self-identity is very well done and Davis' performance was phenomenal. As a stickler for realism I’ll concede there are a few weak-acting spots here (the little girl they cast as the daughter is not destined for stardom), but they made all the key scenes FANTASTICALLY realistic. Most of all, this film is just great FUN to watch, great choice for an evening's entertainment.the long kiss goodnight - philip
Quite a good movie to watch. This is a different roel for Davis that actualy captures her well. Teaming her up with Samuel Jackson has made it a good action flick. Were a assassin Davis ahs lost her memory stumbles into seeing her collegaues some how Jackson gets involved and tries to help. Jackson takes quite a beating through the movie as he tries to help her rescue someone. Not to spoil the story line to much but it has funny spots and action worth the rent.
