A spy thriller - no
First, I liked this show. However, it is a spy thriller in the same way that Love, Actually was a movie about politics. Yes, LA was about a prime minister, but it was a love story. Black Doves, for me, was a romantic/buddy comedy with the spy theme thrown on to give a little frisson. I love good spy shows, and this wasn't one. It was a pretty good romantic/buddy comedy, though, so I recommend giving it a try.
Keiran Knightley and Ben Whishaw have great chemistry as partners in crime. There are nice comedic turns by assorted assasins. The bloodshed is the over-the-top Tarantino kind that is fun, but not thrilling. Overall wonderful, fun acting.
