"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."

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."

2/4
"Where are the truth in titular advertising police when you need them?"

"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
