Sounds a bit like a Red Scare movie, but surprisingly apolitical: the main villain seems to be more fascist than communist, and even the Russian characters appear to have corrupted by American consumerism. Instead, the focus is more on character, and the damage done to people by their experiences in wartime. An intelligent and cynical movie, well-played for the most part, and with an astonishingly good turn from Angela Lansbury. Inevitably linked in the culture to the assassinations of the Kennedy brothers in the 1960s, but still feels remarkably un-dated.

Of course, now it's completely dated, but I still watch it.

The best thing about this film is the cast, they're phenomenal and look like they're having so much fun playing various types of idiotic people. Brad Pitt is downright hilarious although John Malkovich steals the show with some brilliant lines. The plot is silly but I think that's the point, and it's fun to watch these bumbling idiots do stupid things and the CIA's response to them. There are a decent amount of laugh out loud moments. For me I also enjoyed watching Linda's attempts at internet dating as sadly thats something I've experienced first hand! It's just an all round entertaining and silly film, and as long as you don't take it too seriously you should find it fairly enjoyable.
