Such potential, a great story premise, a bit of inspiration from Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. But the acting stinks, along with costumes (spot the terrible wig), crappy accent from Rupert and a miserly budget. I don't think the actors can be blamed because there's some quality in here, except for the Derek Zoolander wannabe, he is just terrible.
The casting of Rupert Everett is weird. He's better than this but seems horribly miscast in this case, straining his voice to hide a terrible American accent.
It's got a 4 for the story but everything else drags it down. I'll still watch it but it could've been so much better.
