This kind of stuff always cracks me up:
"It’s here in London that we meet the crack team of spooks and G-men that oversees the 24-hour video and audio surveillance networks that our governments have so lovingly assembled for our protection in a paranoid world. (Think no one’s listening in on your cellphone conversations? Think again.) "

Seriously, if anyone really thinks what they see in a movie is an accurate description of anything close to what government agencies are capable off is gravely naive. It's Hollywood folks. Fantasy. It's what we would LIKE to believe. It's no where near reality. Trust me on this.

It's a movie. It's made to entertain. Not to be a behind the scene portrayal of the efficency (chuckle) of our government intelligence agency.
