Reviews

Dallas Observer - Bill Gallo
As is common in a Frankenheimer picture, the plot lines get a bit tangled in Ronin, but the atmosphere is tense, the style impeccable.
88
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Ronin manages to remain focused on the plot and the characters, even while staging increasingly complicated pyrotechnic set pieces and offering its share of white-knuckle moments.

Rolling Stone - Unnamed
Ronin represents an exhilarating return to form for Frankenheimer.

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - Rick Groen
What an impeccably crafted film this is -- slightly impoverished in theme, perhaps, but so rich everywhere else that it seems rude to notice.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
I enjoyed the film on two levels: for its skill and its silliness.
