I watched it closely mainly because my brother was an Extra in the film, never spotted him though. The film was decent enough but not a cinematic event. A wanted terrorist is being transported and they are stuck in traffic with no police sirens anywhere to shift them all. The escape part of Qasim looked silly in the first place. In fact I found it pedestrian despite some international location filming and bigger budget. Spooks has one of the show's director back for the film but its a plodding style without the flair, style and pacing of the television show. Mission Impossible was a television show re-tooled for the cinema backed by Tom Cruise and the off centre talents of Brian De Palma.
Of course in the cinema this film will compete with Mission Impossible, James Bond and Jason Bourne but with a lower budget and lower wattage stars.

With Spooks not many of the television series cast remained so Harry Pearce (Peter Firth) is central to the plot and he is joined here by new cast member Kit Harington who plays a former agent brought in to flush out Harry after a wanted terrorist escapes. I remember in the 1970s the TV show The Sweeney spawned several films for the cinema with the television cast reprising their roles.
Now four years after its final episode Spooks returns as a feature film for the cinema. We recently discussed Tosca in Quantum of Solace and how the opera itself is a comment on the emotional substance of the film.
It isn’t the first time that we see this kind of sequence in an action film.

Spooks was undoubtedly a riveting espionage drama series for the BBC which never shied away from killing off some of its key cast members. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation is a very good action movie that includes a great sequence in an opera house.
