Watched over the weekend. Turned it off. Was not loyal to the book, and they rushed the tradecraft aspects, which is what made the book great. Jon Voight was terrible. Cannot recommend the movie, but the book is great.

I don't hate The Odessa File movie but Forsyth's The Day of the Jackal is a much better movie.

Like you said, The Odessa File book is a page turner for sure.

Tough crowd, I like the Odessa File.

Not many thrillers can hang with Day of the Jackal.
