Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This is the third movie with Jack as its hero, so he is a known quantity -- a humanist spook with an overdeveloped moral sense -- but Ford, playing the part for the second time, knows how to keep his earnestness fresh.

Narrative complexity and momentum make this a true cinematic equivalent of an absorbing page-turner.
