Bottom line up front: For those that like spy thrillers and are not put off by the use of sex (and weaponized sex/sexual violence), you will like this one. This is an original film for the most part but I am not likely to watch this film again.

This film is very original and well through out. It is very cerebral and you have to pay very close attention to keep up with what is going on. While the film does explain everything in the end, I felt the plan was just "too perfect" to actually have been pulled off (nothing comes off that perfect in real life).

Due to the fact the plot is very exacting, the film seems to move along rather slow and the character development seems to be slow as well. It was refreshing to see a film with a mix of good and bad characters of both genders. There is an even distribution of bad female and bad male characters in this film but also good female/mail character.

A word of warning to those who have not seen this film yet, this film is gritty and holds little back from the viewer. As other reviewers have noted and mentioned this film has a lot of sex scenes in it or scenes in which sex is the instrument of power. There are even a couple of rape scenes. While I usually dislike (really dislike) rape scenes, these are passable as they are necessary to the plot/story line. They are just hard to watch. So, viewer beware! Additionally, nearly all the sex scenes in the film are also necessary to the plot line so the amount of sex is arguably not gratuitous as without them, the plot may have a few holes in it. This film does blur this line though!
