Reviews
Film 4 - One of the best-looking, best-acted spy movies we've seen in a long while., Guardian UK - What a treat this film is, and what an unexpected thrill., Daily Telegraph - Completely absorbing and a more than worthy companion piece to the 1979 BBC serialisation., Time Out - This spy story is all about the journey - the process - and the byways of the route, not the grand finale. This film's superb cast, script and direction threaten to make that journey equally as thrilling as Le CarrΘ's book.
Additional Information
LET THE RIGHT ONE IN director Tomas Alfredson takes the helm for this adaptation of John Le Carre's novel about an ex-British agent who emerges from retirement to expose a mole in MI6. England, 1973: British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) head Control (John Hurt) and his top-ranking lieutenant George Smiley (Gary Oldman) are both forced into retirement after a mission involving respected secret agent Jim Prideaux (Mark Strong) turns unexpectedly deadly. As the Cold War continues to escalate, suspicions of a Soviet double agent begin to grow within SIS. Subsequently summoned by Undersecretary Oliver Lacon (Simon McBurney), Smiley is secretly reemployed by the SIS in order to root out the double agent suspected of sharing top-secret British intelligence with the Soviets. Meanwhile, as Smiley and his new partner Peter Guillam (Benedict Cumberbatch) begin systematically examining all of the official missions and records involving MI6, the veteran spy can't help but recall an encounter he once had with Karla, a dangerous Russian operative, years prior. At first, uncovering the identity of the infiltrator seems nearly impossible. Smiley and Guillam get a big break, however, when undercover agent Ricki Tarr (Tom Hardy) reveals that he has fallen for a mysterious woman in Turkey named Irina (Svetlana Khodchenkova), who may have a crucial lead. Later, upon learning that Control had comprised a list of five possible suspects, code-named Tinker (Toby Jones), Tailor (Colin Firth), Soldier (Ciarßn Hinds), Poor Man (David Dencik), and Beggar Man -- none other than Smiley himself -- the investigation begins to heat up again.

  • A lack of ensemble acting, period feel, and drama. Nonetheless, some fascinating character studies

    To the last year of his life, Le Carre himself was a contemporary writer. He understood that his work had to be current to be relevant. The main drawback of this film is that it attempts to go back in time by the very tricky distance of 35-40 years, from 2011 back to 1974. Long enough for many of the attitudes of the time to have been rejected, but nowhere near long enough to give perspective. Modern films of the Thatcher era suffer from similar issues. One of the biggest problems is context. Le Carre's immediate readership were soaked in the patriotic messages of the war generation. For them, no explanation was needed of a shop-worn, fading, but nonetheless sincere belief in the greatness and uniqueness of Britain. However, a modern generation needs more footnotes concerning the nature ...
