4.0 out of 5 stars Typical but Decent Cold War Thriller, December 17, 2011

This review is from: Enigma (Amazon Instant Video)

With a mix of total cynicism and idealism, this is a late Cold War thriller which will provide you with the necessary elements of suspense, fear for the fate of the "Good Guys" and loathing for the "Bad Guys" with a novel twist. There are elements which weaken the impact as compared to the best of breed in this genre, but still it should grip most who do not demand only the superior. Martin Sheen and Sam Neill fulfill the demands of the script, which is a bit high in its requirement that one accepts the unlikely, particularly in the case of Neill's character; Brigitte Fossey is appealing in her heroines role. Derek Jacobi is wasted in a caricatured role as an East German security agent but the other supporting players do not induce the same sense of waste in fulfilling the stereotypes they play. All in all, it would have made an excellent made for television film and is worth a look-in by devotees of this type of work.

Lots of twists and turns right up to the end, very convincing and enjoyable -- one of the better spy films we've seen.

Good plot, surprise ending, good script, love and betrayal, decent acting. A few scenes stretch credibility but for the most part an enjoyable cold war spy yarn.
