Review of Our Kind of Traitor (2016) by Candace B — 02 Jul 2016

Several reviewers felt this film was slow and talky. I don't agree with that. The problem is that the screenwriter throws logic and common use of technology out the window (why use paper when you can text, for example) and telegraphs the plot twists so that you see them coming from a mile away.

At several points during the film I found myself thinking "No, he's not going to do that. That would be too stupid." And then he did it. This film wastes a good cast on a silly script.
