This has all the makings of a run-of-the-mill thriller, but for some reason I find it pretty great. We've got a short, swarthy tough guy (a Turk maybe) paired with an elegant, tall dancer. They are not your typical leading couple, but they are apparently very much in love. They are living a fairly normal, work-a-day existence in Tel-Aviv, but then, out of the blue, the wife is struck down. Turns out she is actually working for the CIA and this incident pops the lid on a cloak and dagger war going on between U.S. and Israeli intelligence agencies.
So we have lots of well done action: brutal fight scenes, gunfights and chases, but I think it's the music that makes it great. Much better than the last Israeli action flick we watched.
Netflix, 9 episodes, 50 minutes each.
Update August 2022 replaced missing Netflix video trailer. I need to remember to stop using Netflix trailers, Netflix doesn't keep them up forever.
