Tinker Tailor Soldier... Yawn....

Rating: 3/10 (23 September 2011)

I have not been as disengaged by a movie in a long time! Yes it looks great and the production design and costumes were moody and flawless, but I found myself asking "why should I care?" about these characters. I felt NOTHING watching the film, except maybe a bit uneasy in my seat as Gary Oldman sat around 'thinking' in yet another scene. I just about followed the plot but it certainly was not an entertaining experience. A lot of critical sucking up going on it seems but most of the theater I watched it with sighed and shifted in their seats throughout, and people left at the end muttering "what was all that about?". A real bore.
