REVIEW
Skipping back and forth between events in 1965 and 1997 in telling the story about an intelligence operation serves only to confuse the issue. In part because the older men look so unlike the younger versions and their relationship with Rachel is poorly defined. But the main problem is that most of the 1997 segments add nothing to the main storyline so why include them?
The acting is excellent across-the-board with several really difficult roles handled superbly.
CLASSIFICATION
for some violence, language.
