  • Most critical review

    Disappointing after seeing intriguing front cover

    This is not one film, but a series of TV episodes strung together. There is no attempt to make it continuous, after each episode ends, you have all the title and advert pages before the next episode starts. Not only that, but both the story and the speech is disjointed as well, yet strange words pop up being spoken by different characters, for example "getting scalped". That was something from the red indians in westerns, nothing to do with the cold war, and the writer should have found different words for each character, not displaying his or her own lack of vocabulary. Altogether, a not very enterprising production, and before the end, I had had enough, thinking that it was feeble.

  • Masterclass

    A brilliant and relatively faithful adaptation of the book by John Le Carrie. A spy thriller that is a winner in atmosphere, story and characters. Realistic, gritty and engrossing; the series trumps everything that has come before it and since.

  • The one and only Smiley spy drama.

    Classic rendition of Smiley's battle with Karla, with superb acting and true to the book. The BBC episodes are the pinnacle and yet to be matched.

  • Brilliant, truly terrific production.

    Brilliant. Knocks the remake into a cocked hat. The characters are so much better developed. The acting more believeable. Truly terrific watching.
