Pure kíno, one of the classics, one of the essentials.

CRAIG BOND! FOR SURE.

Best spy trilogy ever.

[[spectre didn't happen]]

Bond a shit

It's not spying at all, there's no intrigue, it's just action set pieces

Does pic related count?

it kinda defines the genre, and craig was closer to the books, as I saw it.

Not talking about all bond movies, just the craig trilogy. I thought it was done interestingly.

Unless you want to go to The Wire, it's the SPY genre.

you want something more like Bodies of Lies or The Departed.

That's not really spies, but it's good.

Anything by Le Carré is great really

>defines the genre

What? You don't know what spy/espionage films are.

From Russia With Love is the only one that can pass as an actual Spy-movie.

I think the ending was weak

I hadn't read that particular Le Carré novel and after reading the wikipedia article I discovered that basically every single location is on the opposite side of the globe compared to where it's set in the series and that the ending is completely different

They probably felt the need to satisfy the TV audience in some base way

Is this actually good or some kind of "we gotta fight muh evil commies let's salute the flag" kind of memery?

I'm sort of reluctant to watch this because I feel like I can already see how it will end with both the main characters changing allegiance because they are the good guys now and I want actual spyshit and not that kind of crap

>>71743483
Thanks anon

It's not like that at all. Watch it.

>>71743638
I will anon

My post might have been poorly worded, essentially I guess I'm afraid of it being too simplistic and too black and white, I hope that you are right and that's not the case

American spies are the worst in the world. They literally just take soldiers and tell them to be spies the retards.

The first and second. Sure.
The third and fourth. No fucking way.

>>71739746
That movie really is fucking amazing, maybe my favorite of the last 5 years overall. It's so deep, so amazingly perfect for rewatches. I have understood so much more about it in the three times I've rewatched it that I've made it a yearly ritual

Remember that shit

>>71743607
the commies are the two main characters who you find yourself siding with in every instance, so no it is not some jingoistic communism is evil American patrio-drama. There are many secrets they steal that concern American knowledge of chemical weapons so they really are almost humanitarians in that they're evening the playing field
