Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender plays intelligence agents whose marriage is tested when a mole is discovered in their organisation.
He only released Presence back in January, but director Steven Soderbergh is already back with his next feature, Black Bag.
The spy thriller stars Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender as Kathryn St. Jean and George Woodhouse, married intelligent agents who work for the organisation in London.
When Kathryn is suspected of leaking information about a security device named Severus to the Russians, George has to determine if she is truly the mole, or if it is somebody else within the agency.
He does so by monitoring Kathryn and testing their colleagues, including Freddie (Tom Burke), Clarissa (Marisa Abela), Dr Zoe (Naomie Harris) and James (Rege-Jean Page).
If you’re expecting something in the vein of James Bond, you’ll be let down by Black Bag because it is a small-scale, dialogue-heavy thriller.
There are no action spectacles; it is basically a lot of talking in the office or the couple’s home to identify...
