A movie recently seen.

I watch movies very often. After I finish one, there's always next, waiting to be watched.
The last movie, that I've seen was "Spy". Based on a brilliant novel, called "Tinker, taylor, soldier, spy", from the classic of genre, master of espionage novels - John le Carre. The novel itself is a work of genius (as many of his works), but film adaptation is also great, co-starring the cream of the crop of actors - Garry Oldman, Colin Firth and John Hurt. Next to those three great, there is a few promising actors, representatives of young generation, I'm saying about Tom Hardy, and Benedict Cumberbatch. There is also Mark Strong, who is deceptively similar to Andy Garcia :).
I don't want to tell much about the plot in novel and movie, but I must say that the storyline is the masterpiece. Events from the past, strange coincidences, cut conversations are really breathtaking. It isn't spectacular action movie, with guns, shootings. Fans of Die Hard, or even James Bond will be disappointed, for sure. Develop of incidences demands constant attention. Storyline brings to you many small facts, and every single one of them is important.
The main character is George Smiley, played by Gary Oldman. Mr. Smiley is elderly, retired officer of British intelligence service, MI6, popularly called "The Circus". The headquarters of MI6 are supposing, that they've got a "mole" in their higher structures. A "Mole" is an equivalent of "double agent". The plot of the movie revolves around the USRR and  England, and their espionage operations. Smiley, as a person who isn't connected with Circus anymore, is a perfect man to solve this case. Will he discover the truth?
Worth mentioning is a brilliant music, nominated to Oscar award.
