In Cairo at the height of the Arab Spring, hotel night manager Jonathan Pine receives a plea for help from the beautiful Sophie Alekan. As the mistress of the powerful but dangerous hotel owner, Sophie has evidence of an arms deal that could help crush the popular uprising. Compelled to do what he thinks is right, Pine makes contact with his friend at the British Embassy. But his actions unwittingly draw him into the terrifying world of ruthless arms dealer, Richard Roper. When Sophie’s information makes its way to Angela Burr, a government anti-corruption agent intent on bringing down Roper’s empire, a leak in her network triggers a chain of events that end in tragedy.

The Night Manager (2016)
I think an hour and a half movie would have said the same thing, maybe even a little more, and would have been more entertaining. Here, in six hours, the plot just boiled over unnecessarily (but that's the problem I have with most of the series I mysteriously get into) and I had to wonder almost constantly how stupid some of the characters were.
