REVIEW: “The Secret Agent” (2025)

The film opens with a striking sequence that immediately showcases the beautiful visuals of this captivating thriller. Director Kleber Mendonça Filho and cinematographer Evgenia Alexandrova used classic PanaVision lenses and equipment to film “The Secret Agent,” giving it a wider, cinematic feel and a look reminiscent of 1970s films. But it’s more than just a stylistic nod; the camera work truly pulls you into the story’s lively world.
