The Debt (2011)
Based on the Israeli
film of the same name this remake is directed by John Madden and
stars Helen Mirren, Jessica Chastain and Marton Csokas. A team of
Mossad agents hunt down a Nazi war criminal in East Germany while
their modern counter parts struggle to deal with effects of the
mission.
All round I thought
this was a really good film, the execution is excellent with plenty
of tension which is of course paramount for a thriller. Despite the
non linear nature of the plot the film manages to keep the viewer
guessing a fair amount. Beyond the surface is of the plot are some
serious questions about crime and punishment, particularly how the
passing of time affects these.
5/5
