I'm a fan of slow burn spy dramas similar in vein to the show The Americans, however the key to maintaining such compelling drama is a balance of action scenes. The complete lack of any such scenes here made this feel a bit tedious at times. The cast is stellar, led by the excellent final performance of Philip Seymour Hoffman. The story is also intriguing, but this film just needed an extra oomph of energy to really push it into great territory.
