    the Tailor of Panama

    Here's another "adult" title...
    You won't get any explosions, no bullets flying...but, what you will get it a highly entertaining, sometimes funny story.
    Sorry, just erased the basic premise of the movie...let me just say you have no idea what this movie could be about, or where it'll end up going.
    I was completely surprised, great story telling, good acting by Brosnan and Rush.
    For me it's a keeper, but I'd say at the very least rent it...don't let this little gem slip by unseen!

      Wow, I was just coming here to post my comments on The Tailor Of Panama. Like Kenny says, there are no big explosions or what not, but one helluva fine story with excellent acting all around.It's about lies and deceit and how dangerous these things can be. Ever since Deliverance, I have been a big John Boorman fan, and you really feel his touch when you see his genius in casting Brosnan as a seedy, burnt out spy- the extreme opposite of his Bond character. The other thing I liked about this film, is that it is based on a John LeCarre spy novel, and though LeCarre wrote a screenplay, Boorman changed it ever so subtly and it really works.Like Kenny, this is definitely a keeper for me. I love movies that explore character without boring you, and this is where The Tailor Of Panama succeeds.
