Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It's a well-crafted film that wears its old-fashionedness with pride.
– Calvin Wilson,

fresh:
"Tinker" radically -- superlatively -- condenses John Le Carre's classic novel, which could scarcely be bounded by seven hourlong episodes in the 1979 BBC adaptation.
– Colin Covert,

fresh:
Ultimately, though, it is very much Oldman's film, thanks to a restrained tour de force performance. Smiley is weathered, worn and beaten down by life, but he's also a quiet, sure force of something that resembles good.
– Tom Long,

fresh:
A deliberate, cerebral, grim and utterly absorbing film that makes covert operations appear as unsexy as the Bourne films made them seem fast-paced and thrilling.
– Connie Ogle,
Miami Herald,
6 Jan 2012
fresh:
The movie is riveting in the exact sense of the word: We feel nailed to the screen in the impossible task of working out what is going on-let alone why it matters.
