Saw this over the weekend. Lighter than the average le Carré story and the changes from the book are a bit of a mixed bag:
Spoiler:
I'm an absolute sucker for political and spy thrillers, so this was entertaining enough. The story weaved between implicating larger organizations for the current state of the world and personal relationships but never has strong footing in either. The performances are all great, especially from Skarsgård and Damian Lewis.
Recommended.
