Review of The Debt (2010) by Spangle — 17 May 2015
The main positive in this one is the acting. Across the board, the large cast did very well and really fought for control over the screen. Very impressive stuff from the cast. In addition, the film is quite compelling and thrilling at times, which is ultimately what you want from a film of this type.
However, it is really poorly written and poorly told. The plot seems all over the place and keeps jumping back-and-forth between the present and past, while not being entirely clear on why things are happening, which is annoying.
Though I don't need things spelled out for me, some help would have been appreciated. Ultimately, this one's plot was its downfall, which is too bad, because it had the potential to be a really good film with a cast of this quality.
