The Debt (2011)
3 out of 5 stars
I have to agree with Roger Ebert on this one. The time-shifting back and forth detracted from the plot. I would have preferred the movie stay in the past, reducing the cast and the confusion. As much as I love watching Helen Mirren work, I actually preferred the actors in the past timeline, especially Sam Worthington.
I learned something (yet again) about the Holocaust and Israel’s response (fictional? or based in fact? – I don’t know for sure) to some of it’s perpetrators of terror and torture.
I am glad I watched the film, but do not plan to rewatch it or add it to my permanent library.
