Louis Salinger, a single-minded Interpol agent, with the aid of NYPD officer Eleanor Whitman, attempts to bring down IBBC, an international bank that he is convinced is involved in international arms dealing, in Tykwer’s gripping and well-crafted if rather implausible thriller, which, if nothing else, features a breathtaking gunfight in the Guggenheim Museum, New York.
