BLACK BAG is a slow burn – but an intentional one. It’s quiet, deliberate, and subtle in its sharpness. Don’t come expecting car chases and exploding pens. This is less about spycraft and more a cerebral dance about marriage, trust, and identity.

Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett are stellar — giving nuanced performances in a film that plays more like a thinking person’s MR. AND MRS. SMITH than your average spy flick.
