In Total Recall, construction worker Douglas Quaid soon begins to have (real) memories of being an agent, after being married 8 years to Sharon Stone.
In Long Kiss Goodnight, school teacher Samantha soon begins to have memories of being a spy, after 8 years of having a blank past.
Anyone notice the similarities?
Yes, it did.
shareDoubtful even though they both involve amnesia. You could ask same question did Total Recall get it's idea from Bourne Identity? The book predates it by years and even a movie version with Richard Chamberlain previous to the ones with Matt Damon.
shareYes, in both movies, a lot of guns were used and people cursed. So it's very likely that it got its idea from Total Recall.

No, the writer clearly ripped of Robert Ludlum's "The Bourne Identy".
