Leo Cauffield, chief of British counterespionage, fails by a whisker to arrest two fellow Cambridge-graduated spies who just manage to defect to Moscow, resigns and becomes a journalist. In Beirut, home of his Islam-converted father, Leo seduces Sally Tyler to divorce her husband for him. Their happiness with children from both marriages is cut short a few years later, when Leo suddenly disappears; Sally learns soon he's suspected of having defected to Moscow too, which she refuses to believe, but will be forced to while Western secret services want Leo back or dead. —KGF Vissers

Trivia
Rupert Everett has previously played the lead in another film based on the story of the Cambridge Spies, Another Country (1984), in which his character was based on real life spy Guy Burgess.

Goofs
Lenin's portrait hangs in a Moscow restaurant. In reality, portraits of Russian political leaders were only ever hung in official places, not in restaurants.

Quotes
Dick Madsen: Mrs Cauffield, we've just been informed that your husband has arrived in Moscow of his own free will. We consider the term ''traitor'' rather melodramatic within these walls
[MI6]
Dick Madsen: . In Intelligence vernacular, your husband has chosen ''a different loyalty''.

Crazy credits
The opening credits appear on the screen in the fashion of text typed and displayed on a very early computer, during scenes showing events taking place a decade before the time the film is set in.

Connections
Features King Lear (1970)

Top review

5/10

Weak movie

Weak movie. I would venture to say it reminded me of a low budget B movie. I was bored. The characters were almost lifeless, all except Sharon Stone's character. Even though it was made in 2004/2005, it resembles the production abilities of much earlier decades. Locations don't seem realistic. For example, Beirut was the Paris of the Middle East in the 1960's yet was cast as a backward location in a more backward town (not even a city). The clothes seem like they were of a decade or two earlier. I gave the movie a 5/10 and that may have been generous.
