Review of MI-5

MI-5 (2015)
7/10
Realistic and Entertaining
8 April 2021
This was a decently written, competently directed, and well-acted film version of the previous excellent Spooks series. The human element was very much evident throughout with no over-the-top Hollywood thrills and spills. Indeed, it was very British and some American viewers might see this film as tepid and lacking the edge-of-the-seat thrills to which they are accustomed. Not that there is anything wrong with over-the-top action fantasy but the danger is this can become cliched, and the accepted norm.

This hit the spot for me. Kit Harrington certainly added kudos and blended well with the aways excellent performances of Peter Firth.

Enjoy!
