Movie was inspired by John Wick so I would compare it to that to see if it has a similar style camera wise. Regarding plot: Ya the end of that one was kinda a shit show, but it was going for the whole "oooh spies you can't trust em" vibe. Been a while since I saw it but here's what I THINK I remember. Bakhtin is the German/KGB defector that they were trying to bring across the border. He has one copy of the list memorized, its his bargaining chip. Here is where I get foggy. The other version of the list is what gets stolen from 008 (or whoever gets murdered at the beginning of the movie). It's either on the watch he's wearing or somehow is accessed by the watchmaker. OK now i just forget but that seems right. Either way Charles Xavier kills the KGB agent that killed 008 and that's how he gets to see the actual list. I think.She was the double agent. Who was actually a triple agent but the Russians didn't know it. Nor did Charles Xavier, which is why he wanted to expose her, and why she had to kill him.
What I never could understand was if the defector had the list memorized why did he let her try to do the mission?
