Featured review
A So, So Movie
A so, so movie. Somewhat two dimensional. This movie would have benefited from being made 10 years later from two perspectives: better production values and also by that time there was more information/biographies out about this era e.g. Blunt's Russian handler's biography which came out after this was made. Those with an interest in British dramas and an interest in the Cambridge spies (Blunt, Burgess, Maclean, Philby and Cairncross) might find this interesting, but this movie doesn't excel in either of these respects.
