I must admit after seeing the trailers for The Man From Uncle I was excited but was unsure whether it would live up to initial promise.
Well the potential delivers, not only is this a great tribute to the TV series but this is a really enjoyable film in it's own right.
The characters are funny and engaging - there is a lot of really snappy interchanges between them and they are all likable and good fun to see on screen. Both Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer are really well suited to their parts and have great banter. Alicia Vikander is brilliant as well, and really adds spice to a role that might have been nothing with someone else.
The storyline is also actually good in a 60's spy show / film kind of way. And finally it looks and sounds great with cracking music and a gorgeous look. I think this is probably Guy Richie's most complete film and it would be shame if it doesn't do well enough to warrant a sequel as I would really love to see more of their adventures.
Highly recommended!
