Too compact and messy

Rating: 2/10 (12 February 2013)

The series made 32 years earlier is way better than this. Shrink a 7-episode series into 1 film, is impossible with all fact, persons, events etc. They should have the film in at least 2 parts. Watching a film and at the same time needing a notebook, to keep all the messy things together. It doesn't make it well-made, well-directed or entertaining. Rather the opposite, like putting as much fact as you can in each minute, without thinking it's a film, made for entertaining it's audience. This film must have been made in a rush.
Even though Gary Oldman is doing okay, but he is not Alec Guinness.
Directed by a Swede, explains a lot, most definitely its poor performance.
