Turks & Caicos

The second movie in David Hare's Johnny Worricker trilogy. Loose-limbed spy Johnny Worricker, last seen whistleblowing at MI5 in Page Eight, has a new life. He is hiding out in Ray-Bans on the Caribbean islands of the title, eating lobster and calling himself Tom Eliot (he’s a poet at heart). We’re drawn into his world and his predicament when Christopher Walken strolls in as a shadowy American who claims to know Johnny. The encounter forces him into the company of some ambiguous American businessmen who claim to be on the islands for a conference on the global financial crisis. When one of them falls in the sea, their financial PR seems to know more than she's letting on. Worricker soon learns the extent of their shady activities and he must act quickly to survive when links to British prime minister Alec Beasley come to light.

A decent movie, but no suspense. Mostly chitchat by old men.

The curse of a sequel. Following PAGE EIGHT, expectations were higher than this film could reach. If I were to simplify my response, this felt more like a B-grade American TV episode than the subtle, carefully paced feature film that was its predecessor. Where the first had a quiet elegance, this had flash; where the first had stellar performances, this was horribly miscast. Where the first wooed tender relationships, this had but a one moment of pathos in a sea of undeveloped stereotypes. Where to the first I gave a 9 (superb), to this film I give a 5 (meh) out of 10. Here's hoping that the final piece of this trilogy, SALTING THE BATTLEFIELD, rebounds. [Spy Drama]

This is the second of a trilogy of MI5 "spy thrillers" and is a compete waste of time - DO NOT WATCH.

The first one - Page Eight was bad enough, but Turks & Caicos is a complete disaster. You don't even get to see the beautiful Turks & Caicos islands - they could have filmed this in Brighton!!!


My wife commented in Page Eight and again in this movie that Bill Nighy must have written it, as he's irresistible to every woman he comes into contact with!!!

Again, look at the list of actors here.. it should be a good movie, but alas they forgot to hire a good writer/screen writer - didn't learn from the first movie apparently...
I'll give it a very generous 0/10
