Matt Smith gets to shed the Doctor Who shadow (And the awful Terminator Genysis nonsense) and everyones favourite Dark Lord Ralph Fiennes is equally no nonsense as the human rights lawyer. But it's Kiera Knightley who quite simply puts in a career performance here thats believable and stirring.
A decent british thriller.
