Premiere -
It's a role that essentially demystifies Brosnan's star persona, and in it he is simply sensational, funnier and more persuasively neurotic than even a devoted fan might expect.

ReelViews -
There's nothing edgy or groundbreaking about The Matador, but it's funny, touching, and ultimately endearing.

Rolling Stone -
Writer-director Richard Shepard gives Brosnan his meatiest role ever, and he digs in with relish.

Chicago Reader -
If he'd (Shepard) gone a few notches darker and deeper he might have had a formidable post-cold war thriller. Still, there's much to enjoy in Brosnan's enthusiastic scruffing up of his Bond/Steele image and in Shepard's energetic, if lightweight, direction.

The Hollywood Reporter -
The Matador gets a 151-proof tequila shot of sharp comedy from the droll byplay between Pierce Brosnan and Greg Kinnear.

Their meeting sets off a chain of events that will change their lives forever, as Wright is suddenly thrust into a far-from-mundane existence that he takes to surprisingly well … once he gets acclimated to it.
