About this product

Product Information

LET THE RIGHT ONE IN director Tomas Alfredson takes the helm for this adaptation of John Le Carré's novel about an ex-British agent who emerges from retirement to expose a mole in MI6. England, 1973: British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) head Control (John Hurt) and his top-ranking lieutenant George Smiley (Gary Oldman) are both forced into retirement after a mission involving respected secret agent Jim Prideaux (Mark Strong) turns unexpectedly deadly. As the Cold War continues to escalate, suspicions of a Soviet double agent begin to grow within SIS. Subsequently summoned by Undersecretary Oliver Lacon (Simon McBurney), Smiley is secretly reemployed by the SIS in order to root out the double agent suspected of sharing top-secret British intelligence with the Soviets. Meanwhile, as Smiley and his new partner Peter Guillam (Benedict Cumberbatch) begin systematically examining all of the official missions and records involving MI6, the veteran spy can't help but recall an encounter he once had with Karla, a dangerous Russian operative, years prior. At first, uncovering the identity of the infiltrator seems nearly impossible. Smiley and Guillam get a big break, however, when undercover agent Ricki Tarr (Tom Hardy) reveals that he has fallen for a mysterious woman in Turkey named Irina (Svetlana Khodchenkova), who may have a crucial lead. Later, upon learning that Control had comprised a list of five possible suspects, code-named Tinker (Toby Jones), Tailor (Colin Firth), Soldier (Ciarán Hinds), Poor Man (David Dencik), and Beggar Man -- none other than Smiley himself -- the investigation begins to heat up again.

    Exactly what I wanted

    I've seen this movie on some Dish Network channel and loved it. Saved it on my DVR and occasionally watched because I enjoyed it so much. Then I had to change DVRs and lost the recording. It is nice to now have a Blu Ray copy. The characters are superbly played - Gary Oldman, Benedict Cumberbatch, Colin Firth and the rest of the cast were outstanding. A great story and great mystery.

    BRITISH VERSION MUCH BETTER & MORE ENGAGING

    Difficult to keep my attention - Not entertaining - Difficult to follow - I also have the British version which is much more interesting to watch and there is more clarity of the players

  • So Glad I Gave This Spy Flick a Chance!

    I’d heard some bad reviews about this movie— yet the critics gave it awesome reviews. I decided to take a chance and see it for myself— and was very happy to have purchased it! It is very ‘involved’, and you definitely have to pay attention or you won’t know what’s going on. I think I had more trouble than usual because of British jargon, but nothing I couldn’t figure out. Not much in the way of action— but I don’t particularly mind that. Not a movie for everyone-you’ll either love it or hate it!

  • Overlooked movie

    This is not James Bond. It's not Jason Bourne. But this an excellent look at the true world of spycraft. It gives a real feel of the 70's. It is slow but is also deliberate and draws you in to find out who the mole is. Take the time to get wrapped up in it.

  • Worth a play

    A good story, but after the Alex Guinness version it is difficult to accept the new characters at first viewing. The interview with John Le Carre was the best part!

  • Wasn't a great movie to me...

    Wasn't a great movie to me but "being ex-military, ex-CIA, ex-military private contractor, it was OK! Guess you have to watch it people. For the price, I'm cool!

  • Very Involved

    I'm sorry to report that this has all the earmarks of the typical overinvolved English movie . You need a score card to keep track of who is who and what is doing what to whom If you purchased it as I have well lots of luck.
