                                              The Man From U.N.C.L.E is an action-comedy spy thriller from Guy Ritchie, as you know Ritchie movies are always known for  being a crossover version of comedy and seriousness. The same applies for this one also, it may be a rarest of rare dream in which America teams up with Russia during the cold war, but as a movie lets take it into consideration. Even though there are many action sequences, Ritchie tried to make it as wittier, but still there are some good car chases and stunts. Henry Cavil presented Solo in the best way without any signs of Clark Kent. Armie Hammer also gave tough look in the Russian KGB agent role. The most brilliant part of the movie lies with its Art direction in which 70s were portrayed in its top-notch form.

                                      The movie is purely based on the television series of MGM in the same name, it has been in the shelf of Warner Brothers for many decades due to various reasons. The movie did not make much success as expected by Warner Brothers. It can be a pick for all those who love spy thriller, but never expect a Bourne movie.
