Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy Movie Story Line:- Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is a spy movie in which it is suspected that there can be a mole inside the Circus. Ricki Tarr, the British agent, makes Oliver Lacon aware about this and enrolls two agents for the investigation of the matter. Peter Guillam and George Smiley are the agents employed for the task and they must analyze everything keeping in mind that the Circus leadership should not get to know about it. This is done because anyone among them can be a mole. George Smiley believes that Communist Czechoslovakia’s mission, which is termed as Operation Testify, met its end all because of the mole. It was known that Operation Testify was started because of Czech Army general’s kidnapping. However, later, it is revealed by Circus agent Jim Prideaux that the aim of the operation was to become acquainted with the identity of the mole. After all the investigations and the hard-work of the investigators, a former friend comes out to be a mole. He was a cherished worker, but the sudden revelation of his identity places everyone in a state of shock. Bill Haydon comes out to be the mole. He is the one who once had an affair with Smiley’s now separated wife. After the success of Smiley in knowing about the mole, he is chosen as the Circus’ temporary head. The suspense of the movie is very well wrapped in the layers of drama. One must watch Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy online in order to grab this entertaining movie in no time.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy Movie Review:- In most cases a movie can condense the subject matter of a novel or story it is based off of. Such was the case in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. However, in this instance it should be said that this movie could have gone on for another 30 minutes or an hour and that would have been perfectly acceptable.

The film could be described as a analysis of the psyche yet a better way to describe it would be to say that it is an action film with no discernible action. The drama is there but your on the edge of your seat because it's your brain versus George Smiley's - wonderfully portrayed by Gary Oldman - and that's a battle you can't help but lose. Although it should be said that if one doesn't figure out who the mole is before he is relieved you're not paying enough attention to the film. The pieces are placed before you and explained but it's up to the audience to put the puzzle together.

The casting done by Jina Jay was wonderfully done. The roles were fitted snugly and were great representation of the characters created by John le Carre. As mentioned Oldman portrays a great George Smiley, and Colin Firth as the likable Bill Haydon. John Hurt, though a small role, showed Control as a character you couldn't help respect even if you didn't like him. But perhaps the character that deserves the most credit was Peter Guillam played by Benedict Cumberbatch. A relative unknown when compared to the rest of the cast, Cumberbatch was able to balance the youth of the character with the responsibilities thrust upon him by the likes of Smiley.

It's no wonder this movie is getting rave reviews but note that if you truly want to get an understanding of these characters it's certainly not too late - even after seeing the film - to pick up a copy of le Carre's novel and find out just who is Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Poorman, and Beggarman.
