A very good, taut, credible thriller, with Caine and Brosnan both on fine form. If there is a flaw, it's the absence of a big confrontation scene between the two. The whole movie seems to be leading us to that, and then it's resolved in a couple of seconds. But don't let that put you off watching. Caine is masterly as ever, and Brosnan in this early role pulls off the difficult feat of giving depth and sympathy to a cold-blooded killer -- so that we're rooting for the villain as much as for the hero. Makes for a most interesting movie.
