Tinker, Tailor, Soldier.....Meh.....

Rating: 5/10 (11 January 2012)

Wait and rent this one, or watch it on a cable channel.
Dry.
Very dry.
Yes, even boring, and probably confusing.
Unless the viewer is familiar with either the book or the T.V. series, I can see them easily getting lost in the plot of this adaptation. The manner in which the flash back sequences were incorporated in this film are not very effective, and rather than answer questions a viewer may have, they create more questions. Key points were not especially emphasized, and could easily be lost on the viewer. More than once, I found myself wondering what exactly was going on, and I was familiar with the story before hand.
Yet another film that wastes the talent of some fine actors, and fails to live up to its potential.
