- 68Film.comFilm.comA nicely-made action-thriller, one with analog car chases and non-digital explosions, like a long tall glass of cold water in a world that mostly offers you Bud Light or Crystal Pepsi.
- 60The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThough the film's cat-and-mouse scenes hardly compare to those in a Bourne movie, they're enjoyable and only occasionally ridiculous.
- 50The New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe New York TimesBen KenigsbergThere is something to be said for a thriller that rips along with no regard for anything other than its own pace, coasting on Mr. Brosnan’s blunter-than-Bond suavity and Ms. Kurylenko’s beauty.

- 30VarietyAndrew BarkerVarietyAndrew BarkerRuns through spy-movie cliches with such dogged obligation that it often plays like a YouTube compilation of scenes from older, better thrillers, generating little overall tension and only occasionally approaching basic coherence.

- 20TheWrapAlonso DuraldeTheWrapAlonso DuraldeThis is the sort of film where the plot and even the action become so uninteresting that you start asking plausibility questions.
- 12New York PostKyle SmithNew York PostKyle SmithThis one resembles a James Bond film about as much as Belgrade resembles London.
