| I thought the Spy Game would be more exciting!
For what appeared to be an exciting spy thriller, this movie was all but exciting. At the very most I'd say it's on the slow side, but don't you think Brad Pitt looks like he could be Robert Redford's son?

| Wonderful Cinema Going Adventure
Spy Game movie This movie is full of great plots twists, intelligent words that are made even better with strong performances from the cast, and a great choice in music composing. Robert Redford shines in this drama that is set in the world of international espionage. A highly recommended thriller on the same lines as High Crimes. I could not wait to get my hands on the DVD, and I was not disapoointed, only excluding the missing menu, but that is alleviated with some basic knowledge. If you want to depart away from the classic spy = death cliche this is the one for you.

| THIS WAS THE WORST DVD PURCHASE THAT I EVER MADE!!
I bought this movie thinking that I was going to enjoy my self and the movie; boy was I wrong. In a matter of fact, I was depressed after seeing the film in its entirety. The movie was mostly talking and flash backs. It was a pethetic, dull, and frustrating movie. This film barely deserves one star. Fella's, the theatrical trailer is basically the whole movie so DON'T WATCH THE MOVIE!!

| Thank god for the 'fast forward' button.
Looked like a very exiting movie when it first came out. It seemed intelligently written and well plotted, but it was dull and completely pointless!!! The only ones who will enjoy this movie are chicks who just wanna look at that Pitt guy. This movie is just a big waste of time! Even writing about it makes me sleepy....

Everyone knows that there isn't such a thing as a perfect review, and that no two people are going to agree exactly on anything. This having been said, all I can offer is my opinion: and it is that the other people who reviewed this movie are either cinematically slow, or just missed the movie's concept all together. Spy game was a very well made movie, from the acting right down to the editing. Pitt and Redford give very convincing performances. (Except for the noticeable age problems in the flashbacks) I think the soundtrack is an extremely crucial part of this movie... more so than any movie I've seen in a long time. It has no continuous flow throughout, but captures the mood of each scene perfectly. It's no fake, shoot-'em-up non-believable action film (like all the other reviewers seemed to want) but it is extremely entertaining. Even a bit of a thinker....
