	Author	Review
United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"An ambitious, energetic thriller that stops short of real excitement for reasons that are hard to pinpoint. It's an entertaining movie, and an extremely well-acted one."	POS
United States	TV Guide	"A gripping, old-fashioned WWII spy thriller"	POS
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"It is made with quiet competence, and will remind some viewers of the Hitchcock who made “The Thirty-Nine Steps"	POS
