	Media	Author	Review
		The New York Times	"[It] is unexpectedly splendid fun. Provided, that is, it is not taken seriously as an account of an espionage caper in World War II. In that case it would be a frightful bore"
		Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"There have been so many genuinely superior pictures during the current spy boom that a mediocre one, no matter how well cast, suffers in comparison (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
		Adrian Turner Radio Times	"Unexceptional (...) Plummer makes the most of his enigmatic character (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
