Film help please


Probably from the last ten years ago but I could be wrong. I can only remember what happens at the very end. the bad guy who I think was some kind of terrorist has escaped from whatever he's done earlier in the film and is in another country. He's walking up the steps possibly to a train station and someone stabs him as they pass him and leaves him to bleed to death. Seem to think he was stabbed in the femoral artery but not definitely. May have been a woman that does the stabbing.

That's all I remember

Layer Cake has the main criminal character walking down stairs from a country club/restaurant where he's shot. You're not 100% he dies, but he wound is very serious. He's walking with a woman, but is shot by a man.

Thanks for the reply but it's not Layer Cake. Think the guy that was killed was the last of some sort of gang that had got away and was in another country when he was killed

The Untouchables?

reply

No it's not The Untouchables. This happens at the very end of the film

Munich from 2005 fits with the hunting down of the 1972 Olympic terrorists by Mossad. They didn't get all of them. I don't remember if any were killed in your manner.

reply

I don't think it's Munich but I might have to watch it again to be sure.

reply

This is an unlikely guess, but try My House in Umbria.

reply

Thanks for the reply. I have not seen that film so it won't be that.

This sounds a lot like the ending to Carlito's Way.

reply

It's not Carlito's Way

Were the characters part of a secret government program where they rotate work shefts while maintaining a weapons system or something like that?

reply

Possibly. The only bit I can remember is the stabbing of the terrorist/bad guy on the steps to the train station. I also remember the steps to the station being outside.

Check out 'The Number Station' (2013)

It's a bit more action-packed than I remembered, judging from the trailer. I know there are scenes at a train station, but I don't remember the very end.

I've not seen that film so it's not that. Thanks though

Could it be Nighthawks(1981) with Sylvester Stallone?
It doesn't fit exactly but it has some similarities.

It's not that. Thanks for the reply though.

This was more like an assassination. A stab in the leg as they pass each other on the stairs
