A companion piece to The Eichmann Show, which happens after the story of this movie: the plot to capture Adolf Eichmann, the engineer of "The Final Solution", in Argentina, and transfer him to Israel for prosecution. After one incredibly-edited opening credits scene, mostly credited to Alexander Desplat's music, the movie has only one slight advantage over the above-mentioned one: the company of more skilled and photogenic actors (Isaac, Kingsley, Laurent, Richardson). Otherwise, films like Argo have created such a bad taste of manipulating history (especially with another climactic airport escape scene here), you're not sure which thrill to believe anymore.
