    Not quite as good as "Tinker, Tailor," but still outstanding
  

*by L***D on Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2011*

It's probably safe to assume that anyone watching this BBC import miniseries has already seen -- and liked -- the classic "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy." BBC's producers wisely recognized that the middle book of the series, "The Honorable Schoolboy," wasn't going to translate to the screen, so they went straight from the first story of the trilogy to the last. Comparisons between Smiley and Tinker Tailor are inescapable and it speaks well of the sequel that it is a worthy successor to the original."Smiley's People" maintains some of the main strengths of the original: Le Carre's taut characterization and plotting; excellent scripting, casting, and behind-the-camera work; and, most of all, Sir Alec Guinness's magnificent portrayal of the brilliant but profoundly flawed Cold Warrior George Smiley.In some respects, this series follows the arc of the first one: George Smiley again is in a rather unhappy and not-entirely-voluntary retirement, having been removed once again following his brief return as head of the Circus. And, like the original story, he is called back in to take on a delicate errand for the Circus. The premise of this one is a little different -- he's brought in officially, by the current head of the Circus, rather than being somewhat offline, sponsored out-of-channels by "Lacon and the Minister." And the errand initially seems somewhat trivial: cleaning up the somewhat disorderly murder of a long-ago Circus informant. Obviously, the story quickly builds into something much deeper.The plot probably isn't quite as compelling as the original, but then, "Tinker Tailor" was one of the best miniseries ever. This one takes a little longer to develop and some of the "visits" Smiley makes in his investigation (the obligatory visit to former research chief Connie, for example) seem more like sentimental visits than necessary parts of the investigation. The cast of "characters" Smiley encounters also seems a lot more miscellaneous than in the former show and some of the subplots (the Russian woman in Paris, for example) aren't that compelling.But it's a great yarn and a very satisfying ending to George Smiley's Cold War.I missed the steady presence of Peter Guillam in this series. The replacement character was far weaker and seemed much less "Guillam-ish" (the original Peter seemed a little more like a soccer thug who went to college, while the new Guillam seemed more like a croquet player). But he didn't appear until the very end and didn't really matter to the story.This loss is more than made up for by the greatly enhanced role for Toby Esterhaze, one of the great character roles I've ever seen.It's a great Cold War spy yarn and a very satisfying end to this saga.

    Spying as a cerebral game
  

*by J***V on Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2019*

George Smiley is the ultimate spymaster. He know how to tail somoene, how to set up a false ID, how to hide a murder or how to follow the tiniest lead. After a long career, Smiley is brought out of retirement so he can sanitize the death of an old contact -- without leaving any clue that British Secret Services (AKA "The Circus") are involved. Clandestine services are struggling after being penetrated by a mole and many of their secrets going straight to Moscow. They need Smiley to pour oil on the water and not cause any embarrassment to them.Smiley begins to find that there is more to his old contact's death, but that's a tale the Circus doesn't want to hear. Smiley probes on his own, an elderly spy with a lifetime of knowledge and experience but no support. He's limited to his old contacts, Smiley's people.I watched this in the early 80s when it was shown in the U.S. After that I read the book.  I was thrilled when it was distributed on DVD.This is about as far from a James Bond story as you can imagine.  Smiley is all thought and observation. He blends in rather than being showy. He carries a gun when it's necessary, but he'd never get into a shootout. He is nearing 70. Smiley will never willingly get into a physical confrontation, but his interrogations can be devastating. His memory and ability to observe serve him better than his fists possibly could.There are no choir boys in Smiley's universe. Smiley makes use of people and their information and is always aware of the limits and motivations of his informants.  His world is one of piecing together tiny clues into a massive truth.I can't recommend this enough.
