John Frankenheimer used to make real movies.

fresh:
Ronin reps a pleasurable throwback to the sort of gritty, low-tech international thriller that was a staple of the 1960s.

Run-of-the-Mill!

fresh:
At times, amid this movie's flurry of robustly filmed heists, betrayals and car chases, it's so good, you begin to wonder if inspiration and depth aren't overrated.

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