1. an intercepted emergency call also relays to real emergency services
2. you can pretend to be a postal employee when there is only one person scheduled for the night shift
3. slamming a ceramic dish into someones face doesn't cause deep scarring
4. having intercourse with two males living under the same roof is okay
5. you don't need to scream for help when you're an elderly lady with two deep stab wounds
I want Jessica Chastain to be my nurse...and to administer all shots/injections...with her legs wrapped around my head! LOL

>>didnt watch this movie but is this another one of those propaganda movies Hollywood keep producing trying to make the Israeli mossad or jews in general look like heroes? Disgusting.
Like Munich you mean? In a word, no. Just the opposite in fact.
Munich didn't make Israelis or Mossad look like heroes, but even if it did, it shouldn't matter.
90% of films make WASPs look like heroes, so what?

These "...things I learned from watching" threads are getting so effin old. Think of something original please.
share1. I don't remember the call being relayed to real emergency services.
2. We have no idea how many people were working inside the building.
3. Her face wasn't scarred enough for you?
5. She was trying to murder the guy. Why would she attract attention?
She never had intercourse with David...it was just that on the very same day Vogel took a peek,she made advantsments towards David.When she was rejected,she just went with Stefan into the bedroom. Then kissed David ever so passionate the next day.Then married Stefan.And while married to Stefan flirted with David,wanting him.Sick.And you would think age would make one wiser but females have a different approach to this then men.Despite her slutty behaviour,when the older David asks if she has seen someone,she says"There was someone...but he dissappeared."when she married a top dog in Mossad for...love?If it was love all,be quiet. Selfish much?Talk about having no shame...she did the right thing in the end but she had a promiscous nature.Everyone had flaws,hers were arrogance and sluttiness.

36. If a secret service has agents in a country who, if caught, could cause an international incident, don't try to rescue them, just leave them to their own devices.
37. If you have an extremely difficult mission to accomplish, send in your least experienced and youngest agents, so that they will still be alive 30 years later for more bungled espionage activities.
38. Guards can always be distracted from their duty by a pretty girl asking for a light.
39. If you have been left with a nazi war criminal and don't know what to do with him, don't kill him or just let him go; instead, leave him in your flat tied up for several days while the city is searched by police.
40. If you have a screaming, shouting, fighting nazi war criminal in your house and the area crawling with policemen, your neighbour won't get suspicious.
41. If you have a nazi war criminal in your house that you don't want anyone to know about, don't wait until he gets so hungry that he eats by himself. Instead, make as much noise as possible by forcing him to eat porridge.
42. Mossad agents speak German when you're acting undercover, but as soon as you are off duty they speak English, despite being Israeli.
43. It's immoral to kill or even hit a confirmed nazi war criminal, but it's ok to drug him and kidnap him in order to stand trial in a foreign country.
44. If you have a nazi war criminal in your house who is tied up, don't remove his shoes, as he might need them to kick you in the face with.
45. Poorly tie the Nazi with only some rope on the hands, in a sitting position. Leave sharp pieces of a broken dish lying all around him. Everyone leave him alone in the room. Trained agents will be surprised by the inevitable outcome.
46. Don't inject all the liquid from the syringe. Don't tell anyone. Tie the Nazi poorly (again) in the van. Trained agents will be surprised by the inevitable outcome.
47. When someone knocks on door, the "agent in hiding" will answer it, while simultaneously have the other 2 agents loudly fighting over whether to kill the Nazi or not. Method of killing?: Loud and messy headshot in apartment. Perfect timing
Yes, thank you! Those three (45, 46, 47) also bugged me.
The ending was annoying for other reasons.

What I've learned from many years reading discussion posts on IMDB movies is that most posters are either a) teenagers or b) of some other age, but possessing the unformed and immature mind of a teenager.
Very disappointed that I didn't see the perennial question, "Is there any nudity in this movie?" But the other posts didn't disappoint.
The ‘Things I learned’ thread is sometimes amusing. It’s called “poetic license”. If not for the weak logic, hardly any movies would be made.
I’m surprised it took you years to learn who most posters are.
I learned that written English is a dead language, there are no more Charles Dickens' or Hemingway’s out there, and that grammar, spelling and punctuation are optional.

Don't forget the question 'Is there profanity in this movie?' usually posed by someone called Elmer from some small town called Big Knob, Idaho, worried that his pastor at First Midwestern Baptist College might find out he went to watch it...

5. I'm pretty sure she never even had sex with David. There was one kiss but no sex, hence Stephan being Sarahs father
shareI just thought it was funny she could tell the exact order of the code to punch in the first time just by looking at the fingerprints.
shareI thought about that. I think the chemical, or whatever it was, which was put on the secretary's fingers by means of the letter, was heaviest on the first key that was pressed, and lighter on each subsequent key; though it would still be difficult to get it right so quickly using this method.
shareI only saw this once so can't say for sure, but when I watched it I thought after she gave the envelope to the employee, Mirren's character watched her set the alarm in order to see the pattern of finger-taps (up, over, down, up, etc)... and once she saw the actual numbers (with the blacklight) she deduced the code.
Could be wrong, but it might work.
50. Tom Wilkinson's Israeli accent sounds almost identical to Triumph the Comic Dog's Yugoslavian accent... AND voice.
Welcome to Hell, where white nerds argue for days what true hip hop is on The Tree of Life board.
Could also be the sequence of tones. The tones on the keypad were all different. If her secret agent training from the 60s taught her about electronic keypad tones...*furrowed brow*.... forget it.
sharehahahaa.... wonderfully observed in detail...
shareI learned...
that Tom Wilkinson having more screen time than Cirian Hinds was SO important and therefore Wilkinson was cast as the older Stephan RATHER THAN Hinds who ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE Jesper Christensen (Stephan).
48. Special agents don't have access to handcuffs, just rope
49. If you're a male, your head, eyes, and whole facial structure completely change shape as you get older
50. You should've married Sam Worthington
51. There is not much suspense in watching two old people fight
