is being tortured and is then handed over for a swap with another political prisoner, along the bridge between north and south korea, its the excact same scene!!
Yes, I was thinking the same thing.
In fact, when she was crawling around from window to window outside her apartment, I was reminded of "The Bourne Identity" also.

I thought the same thing the first time i watched this movie!
Prostitute: What the *beep* are you doing?
Johnny: I'm gonna kill a bunch of people.
Pretty much, except for that horrible Madonna sound that sounded like a broken CD.
I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy.
It could have been a deliberate homage to Bond. Otherwise, if they wanted to open the film with her held prisoner by enemy spies, they could have easily picked a different country (China perhaps?).

Well, the film did come about because Jolie turned down the opportunity to become a Bond girl stating "I'd rather be him." It seems likely that they deliberately placed her in an exact position that Bond had been in - and one of the most brutal moments to show that they weren't going to pull any punches either. I think it was their way of saying that if he can take abuse like that, so can she.
