Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This film tells the story of a retired secret agent who is brought back to service, only to find himself in a dangerous chase against his protégé, the CIA and the Russians."The November Man" has a complicated plot, and I initially had trouble following it, and figuring out who is who. After I got the who cleared up, I find it a thrilling adventure, as people run and fight to stay alive. It tells a story of constant danger, and there is no one to be trusted. It combines action and thrill, as it has a plot that people have to watch closely in order to follow the quick pace. The adventure is intense but not mindlessly violent like some other films are. and I enjoyed it a lot.

The November Man (2014) is an espionage thriller vehicle for once Bond Brosnan, The November Man tries hard but never distinguishes itself and worst of all, it gets monotonous and even boring as it repeats its sometimes senseless, violent gun play and grinds to a blood and bullets conclusion. Brosnan plays Devereaux, a shadowy CIA operative, who prides himself on having no personal connections. At one point at the beginning of the film,He pulls triggers, and in The November Man Devereaux never misses his mark. But after a job gone bad (due his young partner's failure to follow orders), he retires. But he's pulled back into the organization, of course, for one last job in Russia. Naturally, that job goes even worse, and he goes on a rampage to exact some revenge November-style. As for a rewatch 06/11/17', The November Man remains the similar and same spy action thriller, with low on thrills and suspense. With a very old-school esque tone and lacking on some mystery, this film is quite a forgettable action film.

I decided to watch this movie not knowing it was based on a novel, haven't read the novel either so don't know if it did justice to the film or not.Coming to the film,was expecting a good movie since it casts Pierce Brosnan as a an American spy.The beginning of the movie seemed interesting, have always liked Pierce Brosnan in the role of a spy. Devereaux (Pirce Brosnan) was a character i couldn't understand, sometimes he acts just like he should, an intelligent spy with amazing skills, can handle tough situation easily, and then sometimes he acts just the opposite making naive mistakes. The story was confusing with lots of loopholes. So in the movie, CIA roams freely in Russia and there are no police. It felt like it was an American territory where Russian police or intelligence had no hold. You can enter a hotel and easily get to the upcoming president of Russia, CIA can do whatever it wants and the world would believe a Chechnyan girl who was physically abused by the antagonist via a email and lastly the Americans would want this girl who had proof even its agents had a hand in starting a war.My score - at best 5.5 The soundtrack was nothing spectacular.

In the Trivia section it mentions that this film was released in August, not November as the title suggests. This is a poor trivia comment, not related to the movie's central character Devereau who was the Agency's "November Man" meaning that he "eliminated everything and everyone" in his path leaving a "bleak landscape like November" is in most of North America. No relationship whatsoever to the date the movie was released. I found that this was quite a good version of the usual spy movie, where there is a new spy trying to take over from the older spy, but lacks the skill necessary to take him down.......goes to show that experience wins out over new techniques and young inexperienced agents need to spend time listening watching and thereby learning from the older agents....don't put them out to pasture yet!
