My favorite thing about this movie the way that Control, in the first meeting about witchcraft, would ask a question to one of the agents but instead of looking at them when they answered he would look at other people to study and understand their reaction. I've used that in board meetings, since people are usually very guarded when speaking but since they assume people are observing them but almost completely unguarded when other people are speaking. They're reactions are very informative.

Why should things be easy to understand?

Making you solve a puzzle makes the viewer more emotionally involved in the film, usually.

Only if it's boy friendly.

Are you insinuating that this movie does that? I don't remember it being a particularly complicated film.

This is the only movie I've fallen asleep to.

>spy movie is all about subtlety and obfuscation

this is called good filmmaking
