      David Thomson The New Republic Bill Nighy is the hushed engine of the film, just as Rachel Weisz is asked to be the emblem of a vein of decency and commitment that is worth defending. Jun 20, 2013 Full Review Alan Sepinwall HitFix Rated: B Jan 22, 2013 Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe I felt stuck on the outside, while the characters went through their paces secretly understanding everything that was at stake. Aug 3, 2012 Full Review Tara Thorne The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia) For a "spy thriller" there is zero violence, zero running, zero screaming and only minimal double crossing-the whole thing is rather civilized and zingy. Nov 16, 2018 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com Although it gives off the appearance of homework, Nighy and his fellow performers give Hare's script a thrilling workout, creating significant tension out of the most routine of encounters.

      Peter S Slow and pointless. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/11/24 Full Review Audience Member A fine spy thriller although I found the plot a bit unrealistic, that the Brits would have any problems with or any questions about criminal behavior by any close ally, Beyond vague verbal criticism, is too far removed from reality to be believable. If you can ignore this ridiculous notion, it is quite good. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/24 Full Review graham f Typical British brilliance; stiff upper lip and all that! 👍👍👍👍👍 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/02/24 Full Review Abhay R Studied excellence of lead actors and the taught storyline holds the film and gives it thorough authenticity. Nighy is superb. Very good film, made excellent by the above. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/19/24 Full Review Jim W Loved this movie and the entire trilogy. I wish they made more intelligent thrillers with interesting characters like this film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/24 Full Review Homerus P Very good and nice acting of Bill Nighy. Great story, amusing English humor. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
