The Parallax View

A reporter named Joe Frady witnesses the assassination of a U.S. senator at the Seattle Space Needle. Although the event is initially dismissed as an isolated incident, a number of witnesses, including Joe’s ex-girlfriend Lee, die mysteriously afterward. Lee, also a journalist, fears for her life and approaches Joe, who is initially skeptical. When she too dies under suspicious circumstances, Joe begins to investigate more deeply. His search leads him to uncover a larger, more sinister plot involving the Parallax Corporation, which seems to be orchestrating political assassinations.

As Joe digs deeper, he learns about a training program run by Parallax that recruits ordinary individuals to become political assassins. Posing as an applicant, Joe infiltrates the organization, hoping to gather enough evidence to expose them. He faces a series of psychological tests and challenges designed to evaluate his capabilities and loyalty. Meanwhile, Joe's investigation catches the attention of powerful figures who desperately try to thwart his progress. Throughout his journey, he must navigate a web of deception and danger, realizing that discovering the truth could come at a significant personal cost.
