The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

[David Jimerson]

Was a fun romp which took itself exactly seriously enough, and not a tick over. A gorgeous re-creation of the '60s. Guy Ritchie back in good form.

I wish I had seen it in the theater rather than Spectre.

Saw it in theaters. Definitely enjoyed Henry Cavill & Arnie Hammer balancing each others strengths and weaknesses. They had great chemistry and it wasn't too over the top within the context of the film. Quite a few laughs from the audience I was with.

Well, if I get the disk and don't like it, I'll blame you two... I've been reluctant to get many of these 'remakes' of old TV shows, outside of the Star Trek series... because the adaptations have been so lame.

And many of the film remakes have been done badly as well... I find Disney remakes to be especially scorn worthy...

This one is exceptionally good. I can highly recommend it.

I thought the production design and general style was nice, but the storytelling and script itself as thin as paper. Instantly forgettable.

It was entertaining. I watched it without getting bored or yelling at the screen and that a big plus for a movie these days.

I was just thinking "hmm, I'll have to check this movie out", then I remembered that I had seen it in the theater when it came out. Not a bad movie at all, but yeah...it is a little forgettable. ...or I'm getting old. ...or both.
