Clevere Täuschungsmanöver, risikofreudige Helden, mondäne Schauplätze: Mit der Rolle des verdeckten Ermittlers im 12-fach Emmy-nominierten Spionagethriller empfiehlt sich Tom Hiddleston ('Thor') als heißer Nachfolger für James Bond-Mime Daniel Craig! Drei atemberaubende Folgen lang liefert sich der drahtige Brite ein teuflisches Katz- und Mausspiel mit 'Dr. House'-Star Hugh Laurie, der sein Luxusleben durch skrupellose Waffenschiebereien finanziert. Inszeniert hat den packenden Thriller Oscar-Preisträgerin Susanne Bier ('In einer besseren Welt'). Als Vorlage diente John le Carrés gleichnamiger Roman. (ORF)

The Night Manager (2016)
It is still true that le Carré originals have been extremely lucky to have successful adaptations for several decades. And the Night Manager is no exception, although thanks to changes in it, there are not many elements left that make le Carré le Carré. Which, of course, is no big deal, because the local attractive changes within the chosen stylization of this adaptation work and are not intended to please the majority viewer. In contrast to the original, there is a cold depersonalization. The main protagonist is a inconspicuous and average person which has hidden strength. It is focused on the procedural side of things and the edges of the ambivalence of the parties involved are made softer. In this respect it is made more like in a showy Bond movie style, however it is intimate conversational. However, as already mentioned, it is not a bad thing, because it works here. That is for sure. What worked out perfectly was that the plot fits perfectly into the plot to the current situation. The cast could hardly have been better and the tension and pace were definitely not lacking. Simply an excellent genre movie, against which it is hardly possible to have more fundamental objections. Perhaps only the fact we can be unhappy about is that the original is "only" an excellent genre work and nothing more.
