Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Bill Nighy is the hushed engine of the film, just as Rachel Weisz is asked to be the emblem of a vein of decency and commitment that is worth defending.

fresh:
I felt stuck on the outside, while the characters went through their paces secretly understanding everything that was at stake.

fresh:
It's the right cast in the right setting but with a wrongfully righteous script.

fresh:
Even though there may be a fleeting moment when you feel an urge to slap Mr. Nighy and yell: "Perk up," in truth he can do no wrong here.

rotten:
The post-Cold War evolution of MI5 is a potentially juicy subject, but while Hare lines up the elements, he fails to take the story anyplace especially revelatory or combustible.
