Ronin takes the concept of the generic spy thriller to new heights. In the post-Cold War atmosphere, it doesn't matter who the bad guys are (as long as they're sufficiently bad), nor who the good guys are (as long as they're sufficiently good). Ronin depicts a group of people with indeterminate motives working for unknown parties to achieve an obscure goal. It doesn't really matter what the ends are...Ronin is primarily interested in the means used to get there. And, surprisingly, given how little is actually revealed, Ronin turns out to be an impressive thriller.
