Top Critics Reviews

It's all far-fetched in a way that only international spy thrillers -- bless their hearts -- can be.

McGregor brings depth to the role. He beautifully portrays his character's thinking: His sharp, inquisitive eyes and thin lips seem forever caught between a smile and a grimace.

fresh:
The mid-summer release of an adult, effects-free British thriller relating to the collapse of Europe's global financial system timed out perfectly. You'll Brexit knowing that your entertainment dollar was well spent.

Our Kind of Traitor is tense enough, but lacks lustre and pizzazz.
