One thing that is deeply annoying about streaming is that it is allergic to telling you what type of film something actually is. E.g. is this Decision To Leave, an intelligent, brilliantly constructed thriller, or is it All The Old Knives, a great one-and-done, high quality thriller?

As we all gear up to play 007 First Light, it's a fun time to watch some possibly-overlooked recent(ish) Spy Film gems: All the Old Knives (dir. Janus Metz Pedersen, 2020) Black Back (dir. Steven Soderbergh, 2025) The Recruit (dir. Roger Donaldson, 2003) Spy Game (dir. Tony Scott, 2001)

Never heard of All the Old Knives. An Amazon prime movie, I guess.

Is it weird that I like Chris Pine movies a lot and will probably watch them if he's in it. I watched All the Old Knives tonight and really enjoyed it. Had a nice glossy feel to it, a bit like the Real Life scenes in Nocturnal Animals. The Contractor was also a fun dumb movie. He seems cool.

“All the Old Knives” is another thematically-appropriate movie for today. Underrated flashback mystery-thriller with the bonus of two leads and a local setting that are all just gorgeous.

The scene is set in a fine restaurant where "Pelham" (Chris Pine) and ex-girlfriend "Celia" (Thandiwe Newton) and sharing some wine and considering who betrayed them many years earlier when their CIA operation around the hijacking of an airliner in Vienna went wrong. Ostensibly, "Pelham" is leading an investigation into the identity of the mole - it could be either of them, for all we know, or it could be their boss "Compton" (Sir Jonathan Pryce)... Sadly, though, John Le Carré this isn't. The…

MORE REVIEWS @ https://www.msbreviews.com/ "All the Old Knives holds an extraordinary cast and an interesting premise, but Janus Metz's uninspired execution turns a movie with immense potential into yet another generic work with little replay value. Chris Pine and Thandiwe Newton shine as the protagonists, and their astonishing chemistry transforms a simple dinner into the most captivating storyline of the entire narrative. However, the constant shifts between different timelines and distinct…
