The aliens were cool, the action scenes very cool. Nuance from the leads. Will watch again at some point.
A crushing, self-indulgent disappointment. Didn’t improve on a second viewing. In fact I resented every minute I was supposed to watch. Taika must have had a lot of giggles writing it and making it, which unfortunately means it’s not much fun to watch. Oh hey, they’re making Thor look dumb yet again, tee hee.
Witty and nuanced, complex and rewarding Tom Stoppard screenplay from the John Le Carré spy novel; fine-tuned, moving and humorous performances from Connery and Pfeiffer with an A-team of supporting cast. Beautifully shot in glasnost Russia making very affectionate fun of Russian, British and American culture to a perfectly pitched soundtrack. Watch for the art-gallery-cum-metro-station and a flamboyant supporting role from Ken Russell.
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Real-life cringe comedy, grotesque, touching and disturbing all in one.
