Dallas Observer
As is common in a Frankenheimer picture, the plot lines get a bit tangled in Ronin, but the atmosphere is tense, the style impeccable.

ReelViews
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
Ronin represents an exhilarating return to form for Frankenheimer.

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

I enjoyed the film on two levels: for its skill and its silliness.
