🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Filmmaker Taran Strahovski expertly weaves interviews, archival footage, and recreations into a tense thriller that's impossible to dismiss. The narrative moves with the kinetic energy of a gangster saga, each twist escalating the sheer audacity on display.

What lingers after the credits is the surreal portrait of an era where the lines between spy agencies, the mob, and rogue entrepreneurs blurred into irrelevance, proving that reality has no need for a plausibility check. — MovieFinder Editorial
