(1 - 36) of 36 OFCS Rating: 59% Rotten Page   1   9/10 "El espionaje no significa ser James Bond o Ethan Hunt el 100% de las veces, y aquí el duelo real es con el arma más útil y compleja: la inteligencia."   Cinenganos   Alex Ramirez "Pretentious camera tricks and confusing flashbacks overshadow fine performances."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 3/5 "Barely recommended."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null "Even within the limits of its fictional spy 'game' sensibility, it is depressingly unthoughtful."   Philadelphia City Paper   Cynthia Fuchs 2/4 ""Spy Game" might have worked better if it didn't try to straddle the line between war and peace like an inept double agent."   Lawrence Journal-World   Dan Lybarger 2/4 "...takes the spy formula and dilutes it with wholly unnecessary plot twists and a flashback structure that's more confusing than anything else."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C+ "A formula action espionage film."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 1/4 "A surprising waste of time that leaves you feeling cheated, unsatisfied, and mindboggled to what the point of it all was."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 2.5/4 "Tony Scott always knows how to put on a good show."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez B "A satisfying and entertaining spy movie."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider C+ "To insert dynamic cinematography, you usually need something remotely dynamic to be happening on screen... Oliver Stone has made a career out of [not doing] this."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov B "A good, solid, middle-of-the-road secret agent yarn, almost gleefully old-fashioned in narrative and tone."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 3/4 "An engrossing, if flawed, endeavor -- the kind of movie that represents an evening's solid diversion."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 2.5/4 "Tony Scott ... has done enough movies of this sort that at times it feels like he's sleepwalking through the hyperkinetic camera movements and rapid-fire editing"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick "A fairly decent effort with enough engaging spy-related developments and occasionally crackling dialogue to make it a fairly enjoyable entry in the genre."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 7/10 "If you dig on spy films, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't thoroughly enjoy this movie."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 7/10 "Seems a lot more adult than anything I've seen in a while."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick B+ "Redford is cool in this movie. He's as cool as a Baskin Robbins delivery truck caught in New England's Blizzard of '78."   Countingdown.com   Larry Carroll B "The delight of Tony Scott's proficient thriller...is the relaxed, on the nose performance by old pro Redford."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 3/4 "Briskly paced and has enough style to keep the formula and implausibilities, for the most part, out of mind."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik 3/4 "It has very good tension and drama, and more brains than your average Hollywood spy thriller."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes "This is dazzling, first-rate Hollywood popcorn fluff. It thinks it's got more substance than it actually does, but Redford’s performance is like one big wink: he's in on the joke, too."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 2/4 "Less Bond than simply boring."   Mr. Brown's Movies   Michael Dequina 4/5 "It is a smart thriller for grown-ups about spies who use their brains."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 4/5 "É sempre interessante conhecer personagens inteligentes."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 3/4 "Spy Game emphasizes brains over bullets and fists. It is a slickly-made film about a more cerebral conflict."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B+ ""Spy Game" is a solid adult alternative to the Potter puff currently storming the theaters."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford "Has the makings of a good movie ... but right now its only 65 minutes long and encased in another 60 minutes of beurocratic debris."   Eclipse Magazine   Sean O'Connell B- "The kind of movie that represents an engaging evening’s diversion, but makes no impact and leaves no lasting impression."   Decent Films Guide   Steven D. Greydanus 2/4 "Spy Game is a pretty neat trailer that somehow manages not to give away its major plot points over the course of 130 feverish minutes."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw "Forget dropping bombs on Afghanistan. Just screen "Spy Game." That should be enough to drive the Taliban out."   Light Views   John Larsen 6/10 Read review   Modamag.com   Brian Orndorf 1.5/4 Read review   MovieMartyr.com   Jeremy Heilman 2.5/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 5/10 Read review   www.susangranger.com   Susan Granger Read review   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf  (1 - 36) of 36 OFCS Rating: 59% Rotten Page   1
