Quick Movie Review – ‘Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy’ (2011)

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

(sighs) The 2011 film ‘Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy’. Now before I talk about this movie, I just want to reflect on some of the things I said in my review for ‘Operation Mincemeat’. I think I might have been harsh in my criticisms for it being quite slow-going and not having enough action featured in it. Continue reading

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Whilst I’m currently on holiday in Amroth in West Wales this week (I’ll be sharing a holiday report when I come back), I thought I’d share with you the latest ‘Basement News’ blog post for September 2022 and beyond.
