Not bad - not brilliant, but not bad
22 September 2014
Well, there was a surprise - I read all the negative reviews on here and decided to watch it anyway - and I'm not sorry I did; I *would* be sorry if I had spent money and time in a cinema for it - but as an at home watch it managed to keep my attention well and be surprisingly, genuinely, tense in some parts - The story is indeed dated; but sufficient to allow the basic premise of the film to maintain a certain level of cold war sang-froid, whilst avoiding the truly old geography lead clichés.

It's watchable - and if you're a Brosnan fan, he delivers as usual. Just have your expectation filters set solidly to level 6 and you'll be good to go.
