| VarietyLeslie FelperinThe ambition is laudable even if the execution isn't as smooth or detailed as it might have been. |
| Little White LiesTom SeymourWith a better script editor, this could have been a character-piece comparable, maybe, to Showtime's Homeland. |
| Empire MagazineKim NewmanA brutal, unsparing thriller, if a little on the long side. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerTrashily enjoyable thriller that puts its low budget to impressive use and scrapes a pass thanks to strong performances and some bone-crunching action scenes... |
| Irish TimesTara BradyThere's a lovely frisson between Bean and Rampling that makes you think what James Bond and M could be. |
| Radio TimesDavid AldridgeThe film certainly has ambition and there are some memorable fight scenes, but it also lacks the extra oomph that could have done for Bean's action-movie career what Taken did for Liam Neeson's. |
| Digital SpySimon ReynoldsIt's perhaps one credibility-straining twist too many for the film, which up until then does a solid job of aping slicker, bigger-budgeted Hollywood thrillers. |
| Time OutTrevor JohnstonPlodding, somewhat misbegotten, and never slick enough to sweep us along. |
| Sky CinemaTim EvansAt times, it's almost as funny as Four Lions. The trouble is, it's not meant to be comedy. |
| Daily Express (UK)Henry FitzherbertCould have been a British 24 but is undone by terrible plotting, implausibility and lack of excitement. |
