Running Time: 104 min.

Synopsis: In this gritty spy thriller, Helen Mirren plays a retired Mossad agent named Rachel. Once upon a time, Rachel was part of a celebrated trio of secret agents who tracked down a Nazi war criminal in East Berlin in 1966 -- an incident so applauded in history, that now, three decades later, her own daughter has just published a book about the exploits. But one of Rachel's former partners in espionage, David (Ciarán Hinds), seems less than reverent about his memory of the time, and he proves his feelings with a decision that sends Rachel and her other former partner, Stefan (Tom Wilkinson), on a forced revisit through time. For 30 years, Rachel has been living one truth, but now, as the past collides with the present, a new and deadly story begins to emerge.

    The Debt is boringly Hollywood. A top-tier Nazi fugitive lives in the place he is most likely to be found, hunted by a tiny and laughably amateurish Mossad team riddled with sexual tension and self doubt. Hand-wringing Keystone cops!

    great cast and performances. the story is excellent right up to the ending which was the weakest part of the film... definitely a good film to see.

    The movie is interesting, but I would like to see the original Israeli film, so I could know more about this episode. I think that the acting and the script could be much betrter.
