Still pulling in viewers by the veritable truckload - and earning it a second week in the top spot - is this German action-thriller. Jeanne Goursaud takes the lead as Sara Wulf, a former Special Forces soldier. When her son disappears during a visa appointment at the US Consulate in Frankfurt, Sara uncovers a conspiracy involving corrupt officials and a cover-up tied to a past military mission of hers. The film's been picking up comparisons to Die Hard - and it's certainly pretty intense stuff
