Review of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) by Gunnyart — 10 Jan 2012
This was a truly great spy thriller. It was so engaging and believable it could have been a leaked account of the real travails of intelligence agencies during the cold war. The grainy style of filming and muted colors helped transport us to the early 70's adding to that believability.
Expecting to be tested by all the plot twists I suppose I was more tuned in then usual but, if you couldn't follow it you weren't paying attention. If tripe like Angelina Jolie's "Salt" is your idea of a spy thriller you'll hate this film.
If on the other hand you enjoy an intelligent and gripping and utterly believable spy thriller this is a must see for you.
