PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"An exciting movie, full of crises and dramatic turns despite an aura of sadness that seems to pervade it" (Mick LaSalle: San Francisco Chronicle)

----------------------------------------
"'The Debt' is nothing more than a gritty thriller with a highbrow pedigree (...) The cast is uniformly strong, making the story watchable even in its slower moments (...) Rating: *** (out of five)" (Elizabeth Weitzman: New York Daily News)

----------------------------------------
"It probes, with perhaps more energy than clarity, the ethical and psychological complications that can lie hidden beneath a story of simple heroism" (A. O. Scott: The New York Times)

----------------------------------------
"The architecture of "The Debt" has an unfortunate flaw. The younger versions of the characters have scenes that are intrinsically more exciting, but the actors playing the older versions are more interesting (...) Rating: **1/2 (out of four)" (Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times)

----------------------------------------
"A superbly crafted espionage thriller" (Betsy Sharkey: Los Angeles Times)
