True presto_3000, I dont excited much about many films nowadays either, but very excited about this one. I loved Let The Right One In so im hoping Alfredson as made another belter of a film. And hopefully Oldman will finally get that oscar he so richly deserves. Im very optimistic and can't wait! :)

Good casting with Gary Oldman as Smiley, will bring something different to a role that is largely synonymous with Alec Guiness.
The casting is surely too obvious in some respects, wouldn't take a genius to figure it out. More

Not been so excited about a film for ages - I haven't even read the book - but, what a cast, and love the look of the grim cold war cinematography. Even the music sounds amazing. More
