The Debt

/ / Home Video
  • Title: The Debt
  • IMDB: link

the-debt-blu-raySecrets always come out. When a former Mossad agent (Ciarán Hinds) is killed on the eve of the release of a book glorifying the events that made him and two others national heroes, Rachel Singer (Helen Mirren) is forced to face the past and weigh the consequences of telling the truth after so many years.

Most of The Debt takes place in Cold War flashbacks as Mossad agents Rachel Singer (Jessica Chastain), David Peretz (Sam Worthington), and Stefan Gold (Marton Csokas), are chosen to kidnap a Nazi scientist known as “The Surgeon of Birkenau” (Jesper Christensen), and smuggle him out of East Berlin for trial in Israel.

When the escape plan is compromised the three agents are forced to sit on the Nazi for days, as tensions fray, until a new plan can be devised. Eventually the doctor is shot by Rachel while trying to escape. At least that’s what history records.

Daredevil #6

/ / Comics

daredevil-6-coverAfter being beaten dumped overboard by Bruiser, Daredevil works his way back onto the boat to save Austin Cao before he (and his former boss) are killed by representatives of five terrorist organizations (A.I.M., HYDRA, Agence Byzantine, Black Spectre, The Secret Empire) to tie up any loose ends by removing anyone who might have knowledge of the Omegadrive.

The Omegadrive contains billions of gigabytes of information about each of the terrorist organizations, which has now fallen into the hands of Daredevil. After defeating Bruiser, and finding himself and the two hostages, Matt Murdock realizes he can’t fight his way out of the situation so he changes tactics and makes an argument for their release the terrorist agents simply can’t refuse.

Whether or not these vast terrorists organizations coming together (or being willing to give their data up to their competitors) is feasible, the comic works well in wrapping up this story arc and painting a bright new target on Daredevil’s back. Worth a look.

[Marvel, $2.99]
