The highlight of The Agency is Michael Fassbender, a great actor and convincing in his role as a field agent returning home after such a long period of secrecy.
The acting is an 8/10
Even the minor characters have done a good job so far (apart from the minor characters trying to be smart). The story is nothing new but there are a few plot threads intertwined, I am not sure where it will lead by the end of the second episode. So it is good that it is unpredictable. The soundtrack is good.
I can’t wait for the next one
A nice touch with the song – Love is Blindness. You can tell that a big budget was put into this, of course with movie actors it is obvious but more so because of the chosen locations and the way some of the action scenes were shot. This is shaping up to be a good movie. I really enjoyed it, although I may be biased, Michael Fassbender is one of my favorite actors.
