MI-6, has been compromised by a double agent working for the Soviets.

Genre: Thriller

What to Expect : A fine addition to the spy thriller genre. Excellent performances and tense atmosphere add up to a solid adaptation of Le Carré's novel. "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" is a must see for anyone looking for a suspenseful espionage adventure.

Critical Response : Positive. This Cold War spy game ranked high among critics, most of whom fell in love with the plot's paranoid mood and strong cast. One critic complained that this movie is far less impressive (and complete) than the 1979 5-hour BBC miniseries.
