Review of The Debt (2010) by Hidekinara — 07 Feb 2012

A decent enough movie with a good strong cast of characters, Jessica Chastain performs well with a strong character, the movie is good but slows down too often and doesn't develop the characters well enough, a couple of actions scenes make the movie worth watching with a good fight at the start and an entertaining climax featuring Helen Mirren, unfortunately the film lacks any real ending that can make you feel satisfied, and the characters all somehow manage to disappoint, the performances that are perhaps the strongest displayed are Chastain's younger portrayal of Helen Mirren's Rachel Singer.

And Jesper Christensen's portrayal of the antagonist Dieter Vogel. Not the best film ever made, but not the worst. Forgettable but also a good role for Chastain.
