Meticulous spy film. Properly shows complexities and hardships of the job.
Good photography (highlighting whites and blacks) and action, but fails on making you empathize and care for the characters.

Slow, sloow, and SLOOOW!
Plus, awful score and sound mix that doesn’t increase the tension, it worns you out.
Story about parallel worlds, the only truth is: audiences of both worlds will be bored to death by it.
Killer and detective thriller from which I expected more.
Its tedious timeline play, diversity of plots (only a couple are worth it) and obvious hints produce an underwhelming result.
For a fan of the genre: nothing new.
The Duellists (1977, Scott)
"The one man, played by Harvey Keitel, is a prisoner of his own hatred. He must kill or be killed. Keith Carradine plays the other man who is honor bound to fight. It is a fascinating story of man’s violence."
--- Ridley Scott
