The Debt

Release Date: August 31, 2011
Studio: Focus Features
Director: John Madden
Screenwriter: Matthew Vaughn, Jane Goldman, Peter Straughan
Genre: Thriller
MPAA Rating: R (for some violence and language)
Website: SeeTheDebt.com

Starring: Helen Mirren, Sam Worthington, Jessica Chastain, Jesper Christensen, Marton Csokas, Ciarán Hinds, Tom Wilkinson

Plot Summary: The espionage thriller begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired Mossad secret agents Rachel (Academy Award winner Helen Mirren) and Stephan (two-time Academy Award nominee Tom Wilkinson) about their former colleague David (Ciarán Hinds of Focus' "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day"). All three have been venerated for decades by their country because of the mission that they undertook back in 1966, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by Jessica Chastain (soon to be seen in "The Tree of Life"), Marton Csokas (Universal's upcoming "Dream House"), and Sam Worthington ("Avatar," "Clash of the Titans") tracked down Nazi war criminal Vogel (Jesper Christensen of "Casino Royale" and "Quantum of Solace") in East Berlin. At great risk, and at considerable personal cost, the team's mission was accomplished - or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time periods, with startling action and surprising revelations.

Very well done, and fine acting all around -- but a grim and ultimately unsatisfying flick.

Finally caught this on Netflix. Both my wife and I liked it.
