Finally got to see A Most Wanted Man this weekend. Its a good movie worth watching, but it could have been an instant classic. A decent story, a great cast that acted superbly (kind of sad we dont have philip seymour hoffman anymore) and a great location. Its dark in the flavor of The Spy Who Came in from the Cold but it lakes its soul. The movie lacks soul in general and it doesnt know if it wants to be a thriller, a documentary, a spy noir. It lacks a consistent mood or sense of danger to keep you enthralled and you never seem to care enough for any of the main characters. The opening and closing shot were beautiful and had a great mood. But that mood was not sustained across the movie. What a shame, with a better director, I think it could have been an amazing film.
