This movie has an all star cast in Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, Tom Hardy, Mark Strong, Ciarán Hinds and John Hurt. The problem is you never get enough of any of the actors in this movie. They are all great and all have excellent roles so this movie could have been four hours instead of 2 to give you enough of each performance. This movie is all about cold war espionage. There's a soviet mole in the upper reaches of England's M6 that must be discovered. Warning! Like all Le Carre novels this movie moves at a glacial pace. That doesn't make it bad but if you are expecting a Mission Impossible type of action flick you aren't going to get it here. It slowly builds, putting the pieces together, until it all comes together at the end.
