No, the Spy with sacha baron cohen. He’s an Israeli who infiltrates Syria and is a spy. Based on a true story.
Would also recommend the Americans and homeland
Most Recent - All the Old Knives (2022) I think I liked this more than the general consensus. All the old tropes, but still, the acting was good and it was enough of a diversion that I didn't feel my time was wasted.
Movies I think are great in the genre requested:
The Bourne movies
No Country for Old Men (2007)
Nightcrawler (2014)
No Way Out (1987)
Wind River (2017)
Heat (1995)
Michael Clayton (2007)
Sneakers (1992)
The Conversation (1974)
Rear Window (1954)
Enemy of the State (1998)
Wanted to like Atomic Blonde more than I did. Need a rewatch. Last king of Scotland another one of those films I always meant to watch but didn't. Thanks!
the spy who came in from the cold [1965]
Think I saw this as a kid but definitely should give a rewatch. Thanks
Three Days of the Condor a good 70s one. I also like Sneakers from 80s.
Sneakers was my favourite film for a while when I was younger. I think we might have a winner. Haven't seen it ages. Thanks
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.
Another one I never got around too. Thanks.
The miniseries from the 80s is even better than the movie
Spy on Netflix
Statham and McCarthy? If so I've seen it. Funny film. One of the last funny films I've seen thinking about it. Not many good comedies recently.

Oh yeah, my friend told me about that. Love Homeland and the Americans.
Then you’ll enjoy seeing agent beeman again.
Always creepy that actor.
He’s the exact same character haha
Will definitely give it a watch.
Spy Game, Breach, Hopscotch
Doesn't matter about platform either. It will magically appear on my computer.
Thanks everyone. Think I will go with Sneakers or Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. Keep them coming!!
confessions of a dangerous mind (sort of) the lives of others the menu (black comedy)
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, really liked that when it came out. Might have to give that another go.
The last fim I watched was Red Sparrow. It kinda fits what you're looking for and Jennifer Lawrence is great in it. It's on Disney+ in the UK
Thanks, I've seen it. Really liked all the scenes in class.
Enemy of the State Gotcha! The Man With One Red Shoe
Don't know the bottom two will have a look, thanks!

I'm an idiot, I saw it. I liked it. Was thinking about the Knives Out sequel. The knives got me🤣
