Watched “The Agency<\/a>” on DVD. I guess this is some sort of TV serials. It is about C.I.A. The one I watched felt like two parts – one about Russian general, and another one about Castro and Cuba. Nothing connects these two scenarios except for C.I.A.<\/p>\n

The film itself was rather slow and lacks action. It is also very bad with details. Like for some reason, Russian military is using Mercedes trucks for transporting weapons.<\/p>\n

Anyway, a 6 out of 10 is good enough. It’s not an X-Files or something.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
