I've never seen the original TV series (I feel obliged to offer some preface in these matters) but damn, there's just something so refreshing about "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.". Not just as a genre movie, which sets itself apart from modern spy fare with a certain restraint towards its action scenes (even the torture is unconventional), but as a '60s throwback. It creates a stylized Cold War setting, and it's one I totally wouldn't mind returning to; I love that Morricone/Schifrin score.
The main cast (Cavill, Hammer and Vikander) shares a great chemistry and just seems to fit. This is another reason there should be a sequel. I mean, really, if there are two Sherlock Holmes movies, we deserve at least one more U.N.C.L.E.
Some of Guy Ritchie's movies I do love, and this is one of them.
8/10
