Steven Soderbergh’s Black Bag is not your typical spy thriller. With no explosions or high-tech gadgets, the film relies on intense conversations, psychological tension, and masterful acting by Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender. It opens with a shocking twist and never lets go. Visually striking and refreshingly smart, Black Bag rewards attentive viewers and redefines what a spy film can be—quiet, elegant, and deeply gripping.
