Toni A @RT42367047 Jul 31, 2024 "Our Man in Havana" is a delightful and subtly humorous film. The acting is superb, and I truly wish more movies like this were made. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. See more Alec B @Alec97 Jan 8, 2024 A very droll comedy. Some of the commentary isn't fully explored but Guiness' central performance is deeply complex and often hilarious. His interactions with Coward are delightful. See more steve d @RT35616104 Jul 20, 2020 It is fun and different. See more Jul 12, 2019 A classic following the novel brilliantly. See more paul d @PaulusLoZebra Jun 2, 2019 I enjoyed the clever story and dry humor, the images of pre-revolution Havana, and a number of actors who command the screen: Ives, O'Hara, Kovacs and most of all Guiness. The movie has three parts: the opening, which introduces all the characters and themes and is relatively light-hearted; the middle, which is a gentle and droll spy parody; and the final third, which takes on more serious, darker tones about the human costs when life goes off-course. See more Simon T @MovieTart May 26, 2019 A real curate's egg. Tonally, neither amusing as a satire of Cold War espionage nor thrilling enough as a spy yarn. Carol Reed has form in this milieu, not least partnering Graham Greene in another double-cross drama, but everyone here seems miscast - Alec Guinness too cool and camp, Burl Ives implausible as a German spy, Noel Coward just wrong as an immediately suspicious-looking intelligence scout. Nicely photographed by Oswald Morris in Havana, it passes the time. See more Read all reviews
