I saw "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" yesterday.

Gary Oldman is brilliant, as always. I don't think he will win the Oscar though. Has he ever won an Oscar? My god, he should, he is one of the finest living actors we have.

The film itself was very well made with a stellar cast but the screenplay was slow and long and I didn't feel like I ever "got" the plot.

I understand the book by John LeCarre is a beloved spy thriller, I imagine the book is very engaging - the film ... eh... only a little engaging, in my opinion. Perhaps if you've read the book you'd like the film. *shrug*
