Robert Redford introduces us to the spy game yes a game, "One that you do not want to loose" as he informs a Newly recruited Brad Pitt. You go from the last days of Viet Nam and the Phoenix project to the Middle East, back to the US and Red China. The sets, the directing, the supporting cast. Oh, did I forget the sound track? This is one of the best little nuggets in this complex and very clever movie great score and sound should of got a little golden boy but what does the academy know is not the first time they blew it and it will not be the last. I do not want to spoil it for you so I will just stop here and say, rent it; borrow it, but most of all you have to see SPY GAME. It is very solid entertainment, which was somehow overlooked at awards. God only knows why.
