Soderbergh at his best. A great and clever script, you think you know but it still keeps you guessing. The screen ouzes out how much the cast enjoyed making this and great charisma. Blanchet and Fassbender doing what they do best. Great to see that the locations where scenes take place were actually filmed in those places (I know Zurich very well). A cut above the usual spy film. A recommended go and see it.
Oy Oyyy! I enjoyed it. I wish DD would do more as he does have screen charisma.
Like others say, a little surprised there was not a drugs warning at the cerification screen but it is implied in the title 😂 Generous drop of the C word and that is reflective of the society/demographic that the film is portraying. These people exist you know 😂 This film is up there with Ritchie early films and Human Traffic. If you liked those you will like this.
It worked. Simply forget any preconceived thoughts you have that Rob is portrayed by a Chimp. That thought, and I assume it was Robert himself, was a stroke of pure genius. Casting was perfect. It is a bare biography (warts and all self deprecating) that deals sensitively towards others and I don't believe Robert needs to be afraid of how those portrayed of the period will receive themselves (if they are honest). Passed the watch test. I could have sat for another hour. Magically cinema, what the medium was made for. 100% as a story and film craft. Well done.
