18. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011)
There are some really great performances in this film and the direction is beautiful, but it’s boring as all get out. I have no problem with a film that paces itself, or even an occasionally purposely slow film, but this is seemingly supposed to be a thriller. However, I felt little to no tension at all after the opening. It was frustrating waiting for the movie to pick up again, which it never did. So because of that it pretty much solicited a strong shrug from me.
