Ignore the poor reviews here; (a recurring theme on IMDB) this is a reasonable version of a good story. It is light and not taxing; however it is a decent rendition. The acting is enjoyed by the cast; the script is true to the story; though trundles on occasion.
Judi Dench is entitled to enjoy herself here; and clearly does so.
The leading roles are well acted in a Noel Coward sort of way. We actually do end up caring about them; and how this light- hearted tale with a difficult premise is successfully resolved.
Watch for yourselves Folks and make up your own minds.
There are too many Trolls in this universe!

Hysterical reviews of a modern interpretation of a literary classic should be ignored: watch and make up your own mind! Good acting and costumes, sets and atmosphere make this version watchable.
The plot is essentially the same, though aspects have certainly been added.
Some reviewers have written these efforts off far too prematurely; failing to last one, two or even three of six episodes. Give it some sort of chance at least.
The fights are violent, the cinematography well though out and shot; the script is lucid and the plot is sequential.
I recommend that people who care should make their own minds!

This is a excellent movie. The opening mountainous scenes are vast and splendid; the science, technology & Agency personnel are realistic and threatening. The fight and chase scenes are realistic and thrilling. The plot - shot alongside an existing movie - is plausible, tight and credible.
I saw this movie again recently on tv; and enjoyed it so much I watched it again on DVD.
The acting is first rate, compassionate characters behaving rationally under extreme duress.
This is a great movie, one of the Best Ever, and one of my favourites of All Time.
It has never received the recognition it truly deserves. 9/10.
