George (Michael Fassbender) and Kathryn (Cate Blanchett) are a happily married couple, both working in British counterintelligence. When tasked with finding the person responsible for a top-secret software leak, expert interrogator George organises a dinner party to suss out several colleagues. As he dives deeper into the leak investigation, however, he reluctantly accepts that even his wife can’t be ruled out. Trusting nobody, George becomes embroiled in a high-risk mission to find the double agent.

Steven Soderbergh is on flying form with this ultra-slick spy thriller, bringing to mind everything from 70s spy classics to his own Ocean’s films. With a wonderful ensemble cast including Fassbender, Blanchett, Pierce Brosnan, and more, this is the kind of stylish and smart thriller that’s now vanishingly rare in mainstream cinema.


★★★★ “More John le Carré than James Bond, this is a very entertaining thriller, which applies Soderbergh’s well-trodden heist mechanics to espionage with slickly rewarding results.” - John Nugent, Empire Magazine

★★★★ “Honed to an economic 93 minutes, Black Bag beats all the current worthless streaming thrillers for wit, pace, style and commitment to the bit” - Donald Clarke, The Irish Times

“It’s a great espionage thriller, and an even better scenes-from-a-marriage drama.” - David Fear, Rolling Stone
