Rating: A
Note: This movie is rated R. Not for kids!
Saw the movie. Liked it.
This espionage thriller takes place in 1966 and 1997. There are lots of East Berlin reenactments which were pretty well done, gave the the feel that they actually filmed it in 1966 East Berlin. Good plot. I recommend it. It is one of those movies that transports you to another time and after the movie the first several seconds out of the theater into the real world are confusing.
Actress Helen Mirren does a really good job in this movie. She is very intense and has a really bad scar that makes you wince every time you see it on her face. Strange how they do not show her face scar on the movie poster.
Jessica Chastain (never heard of her before) plays Helen's character as a young woman. She is really gorgeous! At least until she got hit in the face with a broken piece of china, the source of the scar. Wince.
I kept thinking about the cut-turned-bad-scar on her face. She should have tried this:
