The Debt (2010)

This espionage thriller stars Helen Mirren, Sam Worthington and Tom Wilkinson. All of them are very convincing in their roles as Mossad agents who are dispatched in 1965 to bring home Dr. Dieter Vogel, the Surgeon of Birkenau (based on the real-life Josef Mengele). The movie begins in Israel in 1997 when you learn of the heroics of the three-spy team that dispatched Dr. Dieter Vogel. The Debt then flips back and forth in time creating a thrilling spy movie that is as good as any in the last decade. I recommend that you see this well-acted thriller.
