Reviews

Seattle Post-Intelligencer -
Energetic and inventive, it's a satirical, smart, grown-up thriller.

|
Chicago Sun-Times -
A real movie, rich and atmospheric, savoring its disreputable characters and their human weaknesses.
|
|
The New York Times -
The first really good spy movie about the impossibility, under present historical circumstances, of making a really good spy movie.

|
Philadelphia Inquirer -
Forget the end and there is much to enjoy here.

TV Guide Magazine -
A cut above the preposterous action spectacles that now pass for espionage films.
