Viewing Notes

Saw this in Arizona while on vacation visiting Ewan and Kim. I thought it was pretty decent; more reminiscent of TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY in its pacing. My only real complaint is that the training stuff seemed either unnecessary or too short. It should have either had more focus and meaning or could have been inferred without actually being shown.
