When I was a kid I used to spend summers on my uncle's farm. And he had this plow horse he used to work with everyday. He really loved that plow horse. One summer she came up lame. It could barely stand. The vet offered to put her down. You know what my uncle said?

He said, why would I ask somebody else to kill a horse that belonged to me?

Tony Scott

Spy Game

High quality Hollywood thriller

Spy Game is everything we&apos;re not supposed to expect from a major Hollywood movie: engrossing, intelligent, well written, acted and directed.  But that&apos;s just what it is and more, this is definitely the best thing I&apos;ve seen since Memento.  Although Pitt is really good and Redford plays himself as well as he has in years, I think the most credit should go to Tony Scott. In the hands of a lesser director this could have been something more like Mission Impossible.  But Scott stays right on target, keeping us interested, developing the characters, and keeping the pacing nearly perfect.  Scott also shows us that he&apos;s stayed with the times: he employs the full array of modern camera tricks like fast motion, reverse zooms and funky lenses but in a way that actually makes the film better instead of being an annoying distraction.  The dialogue feels natural, all the actors do good work, no one tries to steal the show or be the star.  The story is interesting and almost never lapses into the kind of hyper violence or sappy sentimentality one has come to associate with modern studio pictures.  You get a feeling this is pretty close to how the CIA really operates, a place with fantastic technology at its disposal but who&apos;s ultimate effectiveness is determined by the fallible people who run the missions and take the chances.  I really enjoyed this film, I hope it&apos;s a sign of things to come and not a rarity.
