Which modern movie is similar to "3 Days of the Condor?"
#5
There really isn't any. The Cold War paranoia that fueled movies like "The Marathon Man," and such are hard to make these days because either that level of paranoia no longer exists or people really don't fear bureaucratic espionage. I think the movies that try, like "The Informant" and "Good Night and Good Luck" work because they're period pieces. Other movies like "Burn After Reading," work because it mocks.

I love "Condor." Though this is the exact kind of movie that would now have a Steadicam circling the protagonist, a'la Pam Grier's Jackie Brown in the movie of the same name, when she pretended to be afraid in the mall.
