Subtitles?
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Watched Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy last night

very good. Though not as good as expecting. Think I overhyped it slightly.

The back-slapping, almost Die Hard-like ending annoyed me, too.

I take it from that they throw Alan Rickman out of a window from the top of a skyscraper. Well thanks for spoiling it for me.

I watched this just a week ago and for the life of me I can't remember the ending. Its an age thing, but it obviously didn't make an impact on me.

Similar reaction to you though. Very atmospheric 'thriller' but expected more.

heard the end of kermode's review last week where he was saying (to much derision - but sticking to his guns) that is is not really a film about "spying"...

it is on my list of films to see - largely because I was impressed by the cast list in the trailer!

I heard Kermode too - he loved it.

However, nearly everyone I know who has seen it said that 'it confused them'.

Like Amy said, it's simple: River's hers and Rory's daughter and she kills the doctor in a space suit. Except it was a teselecter and not actually the Doctor

So now the universe thinks he's dead

Anyone else been watching the Malaga - Getafe game on Sky? Just happened to click on a link to it and caught the last 5 minutes, Malaga were 1-2 down, finished 3-2 to them, won by an absolutely immense overhead kick from Julio Baptista, brilliant stuff!
