Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011)

I know this film of the classic John Le Carre novel is well liked and i'm sure it's very worthy and so on but it leaves me cold. Even colder than the Cold War the events taking place are situated in.

As a rule i enjoy a good espionage thriller be it The Ipcress File, Billion Dollar Brain or Scorpio from the sixties and seventies to 21st century efforts like Bridge of Spies but this, probably the daddy of all things Cold War does absolutely nothing for me except bore me to tears.

A shame as it's really well acted by a cracking ensemble cast and it certainly looks the part but i simply don't like it and it annoys me a bit that i don't.
