November 22, 2001 — A positive review by SHEILA NORMAN-CULP. Here's a clip:
From its first moments - a heart-pounding rescue in a gritty Chinese prison - to its last, director Tony Scott's ``Spy Game'' is a high-octane thriller featuring dream matchup of leading men, Robert Redford and Brad Pitt.
The nonstop action sprints through key hot spots of the last half-century - Vietnam, Berlin, Lebanon, China - as Redford, a CIA (news - web sites) agent, postpones his retirement to rescue a former protege.
This is the role that Pitt was meant to play, the role that Redford himself honed to such a fine art in ``Three Days of the Condor.''
Forget all that sensitive man stuff.
There are dirty jobs to be done, assassinations or covert operations that may save lives but require cold calculations by men who think on their feet, dodge the minefields and don't let any emotion get in the way of a successful mission.
