Base on a true story. A bit of modern history that some folk may not know. Story a little plodding, but the tension builds up. The main characters are played wonderfully, especially Mark Rylance's performance was spellbinding. All in all a good watch.

This Dvd is one of Tom Hanks Not so Good Roles. I found the Movie to be Drab, and slow-moving, Lost interest within the 1st 15 minutes of the Movie.

Excellent cold war story, based on true facts. Lots of tension, suspense and action. Magnificent acting by all characters. A wonderful story of "The Triumph of Determination Over Adversity". . A great5 movie well worth watching..

A slick Spielberg retelling of a tense period in Soviet American relations. Everything in this film is tried and tested, from the cast of notables to the direction, costume, pacing and stylish cinematography. But does this make for a good viewing experience? Yes, though it's an average film and pretty unmemorable. Mark Rylance seems underused, with his range of expression being typically minimal. Tom Hanks is just Tom Hanks. Don't pay too much for this as you're not likely to watch it twice.

Excellent film- Tom Hanks superb (and 'Hawkeye Pearce' makes a surprise appearance after so many years- bonus!)
