Movie Reviews

Boston Globe - 8/10 by Jay CarrIf Point of No Return is trash, it’s slick, diverting trash.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertIf I didn't feel the same degree of involvement with Point of No Return that I did with "La Femme Nikita," it may be because the two movies are so similar in plot, look and feel. I had deja vu all through the movie.
Austin Chronicle - 8/10 by Marc SavlovBadham, however, keeps the whole thing up and running expertly -- it's interesting to note, also, that this Americanized version contains far more big-bang explosions and an elevated body-count than the French source material. Big deal. In a story as well done as this, a few extra bullet-hits only add to the delightful mayhem.
Newsweek - 6/10 by David AnsenThe change of locale to Washington, D.C., Venice, Calif., and New Orleans only re-emphasizes the fact that this sleek comic-strip mix of violence and romance could take place anywhere except in the real world.
ReelViews - 6/10 by James BerardinelliI'm not convinced there was a compelling reason to remake La Femme Nikita. The original stands well on its own, and, having been made only a few years ago, it's definitely not dated. Nevertheless, mainstream American audiences hate subtitles, so this won't be the last foreign language film to receive this treatment. In terms of style and originality, Point of No Return can't compare to its inspiration, but, for a Hollywood thriller, it's more than adequate.
The New York Times - 6/10 by Janet MaslinOnce the story settles down to wondering whether Maggie/Claudia can find happiness in romantic love, it becomes noticeably less interesting. Ms. Fonda sometimes verges on the mechanical in mouthing her character's nobler sentiments (the film also relies heavily on Nina Simone records to express its heroine's feelings), but that is to be expected. At heart, this woman is little more than a laboratory specimen with great legs, so it's miraculous to find an actress breathing life into her at all.
Variety - 6/10 by Todd McCarthyIf imitation is the highest form of flattery, then “Point of No Return,” a soulless, efficiently slavish remake of “La Femme Nikita,” creates a whole new category of homage-paying.
Rolling Stone - 6/10 by Peter TraversIt’s not that Robert Getchell’s script is any less crackbrained than Besson’s. This kind of kink just works better with a French accent.
Christian Science Monitor - 6/10 by David SterrittNot good enough to be remembered past next week, not bad enough to get worked up about, “Point” is a factory product pure and simple, something to throw onto the screen until the next something comes along.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Hal HinsonThe slick, Hollywood repaint that director John Badham gives it is actually an improvement, even if a heartless one.
