Blackmark (2018)
Enjoyable Cold War Thriller
I liked this movie a lot. Very similar to Bridge of Spies, but with an (as of now) unknown cast. This is a movie you have to pay attention to, so don't try to multitask with it on in the background. Watch closely and try to figure out who's betraying whom.
Jeff Hatch is fantastic in the title role of Arthur Blackmark, bringing a cool, Machiavellian dynamic to a period of history we THOUGHT we knew about. Kaiwi Lyman and Corey MacIntosh are adversaries turned allies as the threat of nuclear war becomes all too real. And newcomer Lana Gautier meticulously weaves a complex narrative as the resourceful and secretive Anya Popolovski. The many twists and turns will leave you wondering exactly who you're rooting for... and why. I highly recommend this flick!
