Reviews

Arizona Republic -
This is real edge-of-your-seat stuff, in a throwback way - no booming special effects, just old-school timing and execution.

Orlando Sentinel -
"The Debt," a very good 2007 Israeli thriller with Cold War and Holocaust connections, earns a nerve-wracking and entertaining Hollywood remake.
|
|
Boston Globe -
The film's a potboiler but a gripping one, and it leaves you chewing on both its nuances and implausibilities.
|
|
ReelViews -
The acting is superb across-the-board, with the three younger performers deserving accolades.
|
|
Philadelphia Inquirer -
What the three pairs of actors lack in semblance (or resemblance), they make up for to a great extent in their performances.
