Well made and suspense-filled historical-thriller with another great performance from Benedict Cumberbatch. Doesn’t exactly have an emotional impact but still well worth checking out. **3.75/5**
Excellent!It’s not quite ‘Bridge of Spies‘, but ‘The Courier’ is too an awesome MI6/CIA/KGB infused flick. The two films tell tales regarding the Cold War, with the 2015 release narrowly a notch above this. Both have outstanding lead performances though.
Benedict Cumberbatch is magnificent throughout, especially towards the end – the bald look suits him incredibly well, I must say… need him in a drug kingpin sorta role looking like that! In all seriousness though, I think this is my favourite Cumberbatch performance (from what I’ve seen thus far) – utterly brilliant!
Merab Ninidze (also in BoS, albeit minorly) also puts in a top display, as he does in television’s ‘McMafia‘. Jessie Buckley also gives a performance of note, which says a lot about her acting abilities given she doesn’t feature all that heavily.
Astutely paced, builds terrific tension and features some cracking acting. Fantastic film!
Impossible to stop watching
As for me, the most important reference point for watching films is the cast. If I see interesting actors who select roles wisely and don’t star in anything, it means that the novelties with their participation are mandatory to see. And since Benedict Cumberbatch starred in “Spy Games”, such a movie can’t be missed.The storyline takes us back to the early 60s. The businessman Greville Wynne becomes a spy in the service of Her Majesty. While in Moscow, Neville gets instructions from a Russian colonel who has decided to go over to England’s side, and who would have thought that very soon the stakes in the espionage game would become extremely high. The lives of millions of innocent people around the planet will depend on them.
Benedict Cumberbatch’s performance is as good as ever. Once again I am convinced that he is one of the best actors of his generation and I can’t remember a single bad film with his participation. And as for “The Courier”, Cumberbatch drastically differs from Sherlock or Doctor Strange. He doesn’t play a superhuman, capable of anything, but at the same time he bestows us strong emotions and we really worry about his hero.
In general, the film’s worth seeing to understand its full dramatic and historical depth. The shot is interesting, there are no unnecessary moments, everything is in essence. These are the kind of films you need to watch and discuss!
if you ever wonder…
If this is a valuabel, insightful, worth to watch british historical spy/war/business drama with a very punctual time era realism and riveting acting at all parts, then my qualified descision based mostly on having lived some years at the surface of this earth, its some of the most splendidly made productions of this genre over the past year.It has smoe resemblance to ”bridges of spies”, also the suspence tha shows the pwerful gravity between the opposing powers of the cold war era. Mr cumberbacht does a thrillingact, as well as the whole cast. The musical score puts you right there at the eastern front, and the cultural differences between ”the swan lake” and common’ lets twist again is immens.
So come to a total of 9 i couldnt have made a better start of my, the grumpy old mans, day in the sun and freedome thanks too this british businessman mr greville. Its a recommend.
