    I'm not one to shy away from any spy thriller, but the one ingredient they must all have is continuity...without it a spy film will simply plod on. Some good acting by Brosnan, and a movie-goer can never go wrong with Olga Kurylenko (The Ring Finger). November Man had its moments, but it just got weighted down a bit where it should have kept pace.
