The extent to which this movie is historically accurate is the purview of the persnickety. "The Debt" is a thriller, not a documentary, and a darn good one. The target of the espionage, the "Surgeon of Birkenau," represents evil, and the three agents who try to bring him to justice represent good. This is as basic and compelling a premise as any movie could offer. Helen Mirren delivers another remarkable performance.
