Such is the case of “The Debt,” a film that can convert stillness and silence into genuine thrills handily. In 1965, Israeli Mossad agent Rachel Singer (Jessica Chastain) and colleagues David Peretz (Sam Worthington) and Stephan Gold (Marton Csokas) are tasked by their government to track down and apprehend Dieter Vogel (Jesper Christensen).
