The Allies agreed to the Munich agreement with Hitler who used it to occupy Czechoslovakia. Reinhard Heydrich is the Nazis' third-in-command and considered the main architect of the Final Solution. He takes over the occupation of Czechoslovakia to put down the resistance earning him the name "The Butcher of Prague". Jan Kubis (Jamie Dornan) and Josef Gabcík (Cillian Murphy) returns from London under the orders of the exile government to assassinate Heydrich.
The actors are top shelf. The story is sincere told in a straight-forward manner. Despite the human drama, there are no surprises or exceptional tension. It is relatively flat even with the dire circumstances. There isn't anything bad about it but it needs some imagination to bring out its inherit drama. There is a compelling conflict about the mission within the resistance. In the end, none of it pulls hard enough. It's a well made movie.
