Just watched series for the first time.
I cannont believe I had never heard of this before! I recently was reading a thread on the Bourne Ultimatum board where people listed their favorite spy films, this series was mentioned more than a few times and as the spy genre is my favorite in film I thought it would be worth checking into. After reading reviews I felt compelled to order the series on a whim. I have just now finished the series and it was mind blowing! I cant believe how good this is Sam Neil is awesome in the role and the directing is outstanding. The major complaint I have noticed from people is the poor film quality...but who cares! The story, acting, and set pieces are so strong you dont even notice. This is one of the best (if not the best) spy series I have ever seen. I will surely watch this many times over. Now I want to read as many books about Sidney Reilly as I can. Thank goodness for IMDB or I would have still been in the dark on this one.
