The Night Manager

This masterpiece shows where TV series shine and where features fail. A Carré story in the format of a 1.5hour or even 3 hour movie would just have to take so many shortcuts that it will inevitably hurt the story. This well paced production captures all the mystery and action of the original material and perhaps even surpasses it.

Nonetheless the Golden Globe awards including Tom Hiddleston (Best Actor), Hugh Laurie (Supporting Actor) and Olivia Colman (Supporting Actress) are all well deserved as is the formidable pitch perfect performance of Tom Hollander. How magnificent Hugh Laurie is in a less expected role, and Hiddleston as the very suave man he just is, or plays. Go watch this.

I liked the acting of the main character (Tom Hiddleston) very much. He actually won a Golden Globe for his role. I liked also the cinematography and the views 👌. I highly recommend this show.. its short and good.

The Night Manager really is one of the better mini-series that you'll ever see! It will draw you in from the first episode and keep you captivated and on the edge of your seat throughout each episode! This show won a bunch of awards including Tom Hiddleston (Best Actor), Hugh Laurie (Supporting Actor) and Olivia Colman (Supporting Actress) all winning Golden Globes for their performances and each one was well deserved! The rest of the cast is great too. It's also directed by an Oscar winning director in Susanne Bier. This has to be the best adaptation of John le Carre that's ever been made. If you haven't seen this yet then do yourself a favor and go watch it.

In my opinion Tom Huddleston would be a great choice to take over as James Bond. This movie is a great example of how he would do in my opinion. Hopefully the 007 producers will give him serious consideration. He has shown the skills needed for the role and will easily handle the roll whether it requires seriousness action and also the times when sarcastic humor is needed.

With the cast in this little series, nothing could go wrong. I guess it could, but it didn't.

Great story, and it captured my interest so much I had to watch it properly instead of having it as just some background entertainment while doing other things.

It's like a nice short story where the viewer is dragged in slowly, and ends in a climax. The last episode is definitely a highlight, where some are really slow.

If I could I'd probably give it an 8.5/10, but since that's not an option I went up instead. A 9 it is then!
