Well, the tagline says it all. It feels like a realistic Cold War spy thriller. Michael Caine does a solid job and a young Pierce Brosnan is believable as a Russian KGB killer. Great soundtrack by Lalo Schifrin, although his score is sometimes more exciting then the images on screen. There might be a but too much "talking heads" scenes, especially when Brosnan is not in them. But it does look a bit like a straight to TV film. The climax is a bit disappointing
