One big confusion

Rating: Null/10 (9 January 2012)

This film is about the British secret service trying to find a mole among the top ranking intelligence officers.
"Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" is such a confusing film. There are so many characters, and they are not introduced at all. Even if they were introduced, they are all in codes. I got all the characters all jumbled up, and could not understand the story. What makes it even more complicated is the constant jumping from present to flashbacks, and there is little way to tell which is which. And almost everything is spoken in riddles.
Though I can see how "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" is gripping and engaging, I just could not follow what was going on.
