This movie has so much reality in it. Cruel reality. The plot is just so great. Drama, thriller, action and crime all packed into one movie. I really, really loved the book by John LeCarré. It is one of my favorites. The acting in the movie is perfect Ralph Fiennes is on top of his game and Rachel Weiszz giver her best performance ever. Oscar was deserved. The only problem of this movie was Fernando Meirelles. Some call him the best director of all time, some call him an amateur. For me it is just headache. Ten different angles in twenty seconds. Then shake here, shake there. Ahh, I had to watch it in two goes. The movie is brilliant and totally suspense but FM turns it into a sleepless night.
