    Right if you're expecting explosions and fast action you will be disappointed. This is a very different spy movie in fact it's probably a more realistic look into the world of espionage the world in the shadows. "There's a traitor among us" the film is based in the cold war era and burns slowly but the film itself is so well made and acted it is easily a classic.

    Watched it five times already. Great to get away from needles technology and watch a film with a plot with depth, well acted and filmed. A real life film not a hollywood techfest. Fantastic winding plot, realistic characters and a great finale.
  • Great but different

    I loved Smiley’s People which made me watch the original, but I never got into the original. I seemed too dusty and inside baseball. It seems like the remake is a different story and better told. I would have to re-watch the original to do a proper comparison, but I have better things to do. This one is a good story recreating the 70’s cold war mood with some action but mostly the sort of mental game which requires you to pay attention. It reminded me a lot of Smiley’s People.

    A movie with such class and perfection; you don't get many movies that are as brilliant as this in all fields. The acting is inspiring and the story is intisng. This is a clear look into Britain's cold war.

    A classy film in its own right. Great cast and beautifully shot. Perfect if you are in a detective story mood.
