Pierce Brosnan as an older spy/assassin training a young spy/assassin and they both get caught up in some international intrigue. Let’s watch!

The trailer doesn’t give a lot of plot (a refreshing change!) but it looks like Pierce trains a protegé and then has to square off against the protegé? I think? Either way there are lots of manly men walking away from explosions so you know that they are manly, that’s something.

I kind of like that this looks a bit … somber. Most spy movies these days are big bombastic things and when they’re fun they’re fun but I long for a good character piece (even if it might be the same sort of character I’ve seen before).

_The November Man_ is out 27th August in the US, hopefully the same in Canada. Olga Kurylenko and Luke Bracey also star. Roger Donaldson directed.
