The Debt

Three young spies cross into East Germany in the 60's to track down a Nazi war criminal.  Their heroic deeds are published in a book in the late 90's.  As the book gains notoriety the three spies must relive as well as come to terms with their past.

I liked this.  It was a fun espionage thriller, albeit a tad predictable.  It is also a smidgen confused in its use of language and subtitles as the characters randomly slip in and out of different languages.

The casting is great, particularly the group in the 60's.  They were much more engaging than their older counterparts. The ending,  I found to be slightly disjointed and unfulfilling.  Nevertheless,  it was still entertaining.

** 1/2  Not a Must See -- but theatre worthy


Rated R (for violence and language)
