Excellent tongue-in-cheek British spy adventure. A fun mix of "What ho" suited types and shell suited east end barrow boy "Are you takin the fackin piss mate?" types.
The action moves briskly and inventively along and the fight scenes are brutal. Colin Firth, in suit, destroying a church congregation gone nuts is a highlight. A very far cry from his Bridget Jones stock character.
All in all, thoroughly worth it; will definitely be watching the sequel.
(If you are interested, one of the writers was Dave Gibbons, and excellent (and my favourite) Judge Dredd artist from 2000 AD in the 70's.)
