Product: Tailor of Panama [VHS] (2001)
Rating: 3.0
Decent, Low-Key Spy Story
This is extremely low-key tale of a British spy sent to Panama to see who is going to control the Panama Canal. The public didn't care for this movie because it was so slow-moving. Pierce Brosnan, Geoffrey Rush, Jamie Lee Curtis, Brendan Gleeson and Catherine McCormick are all actors I find interesting so I enjoyed watching them and this film, in general.My only objection was the normal bias, here making George Bush Sr., the British and the Americans look pushy and obnoxious in their dealings to control the locks.The story is a bit confusing in spots but interesting enough to stay with for the entire 109 minutes. There are a few sexy scenes thrown in to help keep your attention. I was surprised at the number of f-words in this ottherwise-classy movie.
