A Rather Good Spy Thriller
11 April 2015
"Peter Devereaux" (Pierce Brosnan) is a former CIA assassin who has decided to retire to Switzerland and open up a restaurant. One day his ex-boss named "Hanley" stops by and tells him that Peter's former girlfriend has been targeted by a Russian assassin and needs his help. So Peter travels to Moscow and while in the process of trying to escape from the KGB she is shot and killed-by a CIA hit-man named ""Mason" (Luke Bracey) who was mentored by Peter. At this point Peter realizes that something isn't quite right and he decides to find out what is going on. Now rather than reveal any more of this film and risk ruining it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this was a rather good spy thriller which greatly utilizes the talents of Pierce Brosnan. Additionally, it has a very complex plot which makes things even more interesting as each event transpires. Make no mistake, it isn't a James Bond type of movie but it was certainly enjoyable all the same. Accordingly, I rate this movie as above average.
