"That old-fashioned does not necessarily mean musty is proven by Flawless, which does not entirely do its title justice but is a deliciously entertaining heist thriller nevertheless."  european-films.net  Boyd van Hoeij

B+
"It's a satisfying picture enhanced by a few great sequences, and proves there's still plenty of life in heist cinema."  BrianOrndorf.com  Brian Orndorf

2/4
"Where are the truth in titular advertising police when you need them?"  rec.arts.movies.reviews  David N. Butterworth

B-
"May not live up to its title, but when Caine's onscreen it definitely sparkles."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

1/5
"A mediocre heist film with a preposterous finale."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

3/4
"It's good disposable entertainment that offers the right mix of character identification, plot unpredictability, and suspense to keep viewers interested throughout."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

2/5
"Retro London heist caper may not interest kids."  Common Sense  James Rocchi

3.5/4
"Revealing when it needs to be and unpredictable when you least expect it."  Palo Alto Weekly  Jeanne Aufmuth

B
"...a film that is at once a heist movie that feels sprung from its time and place and one that casts a modern eye on feminism, Apartheid and even health care...a solid little gem."  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

2.5/4
"Polished but oddly lifeless heist thriller."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

2/3
"Resulta al final una especie de premake de Inside man, pues expone en otra época una premisa bastante parecida."  Off-Off-Critica  MalaBesta

3/4
"There are better heist films, but none of them are showing at your local movie theater this month"  Movie Habit  Marty Mapes

"[T]erribly earnest and, as a result, terribly dull..."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

2/4
"It may not be as insensitive as Blood Diamond's inane examination of the diamond industry and its accompanying slave trade, but Flawless's utilization of the issue as a mere diversionary plot point is nonetheless plenty distasteful."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

4/5
"It is kind of a shame that it isn't getting a wider distribution because it is precisely the kind of intelligent adult entertainment that people are always complaining isn't being made anymore."  eFilmCritic.com  Peter Sobczynski

8/10
"A weak plot still makes a viable vehicle for a couple of great performances with some unbeatable screen chemistry and a good old fashioned plot twist at the end."  Monsters and Critics  Ron Wilkinson

2/4
"The answers to its most intriguing puzzles disappoint, and the final motive provided for this near-perfect scheme can only be described as flawed."  Charlotte Weekly  Sean O'Connell

"Click here to see review"  Wolf Entertainment Guide  William Wolf
