Terence Stamp stars in Cold War Killers. He's a good actor, and he's not alone, in a cast of stuffy British old guys that talk about the plot A LOT. You see, there is this case of a mystery airplane and it's mystery cargo. It seems the Russians and the Germans are both after this planes contents and Terence Stamp is the one that closest to the truth behind the whole thing, and that's when they start coming after him...
But, that all said, it's slow. As in, slow slow slow. Slow as shit really. It's a lot of talking, and a lot of British guys in suits drinking sherry and talking about chess. The romance partner they pair Stamp with is a whip smart woman, and soon enough she's dragged into the plot as well.
I don't mean to make it sound that bad, cause it wasn't. It was above average really, especially for this set. Cold War Killers is the type of thing you put on if you want espionage, mystery intrigue. It's the perfect movie for TV, and like a lot of things on this set it was clearly taken from a copy that was shown on TV, with commercial breaks, although I don't think this one was made for TV. Too high budget looking.
I like it a decent amount, I'll say it was above average. 3, 3.5 maybe?
