Operacja Argo - Avis

Med ett smart story board-intro och grymma biroller ges Argo nödvändig historisk kontext och rätt tyngd.

...är en klassisk spionthriller. Spännande intill nagelbitarnivå och hisnande rolig emellanåt.

...en meget velbalanceret filmoplevelse, der beviser at komik sagtens kan integreres i en ellers alvorlig skildring af en berømt historisk krise.

Ben Affleck's electrically suspenseful, cunningly original true-life thriller, is the rare movie that has great fun while touching a raw political nerve.

Affleck has taken an unbelievable slice of reality and miraculously improved upon the truth, and the results could hardly be more satisfying.

An old-school espionage thriller with a movie-biz comedy twist, all the better for being (almost) entirely true.

...careful, involving film that turns one of recent history’s strangest footnotes into a gripping thriller...

Affleck's Argo is an oddball mix of political thriller and movie biz satire...

...en mysig nagelbitarthriller löst baserad på gisslandramat i Teheran 1980 där CIA:s fritagningsexpert Tony Mendez (spelad av Affleck själv) smugglade ut sex amerikanska diplomater...

...a superbly crafted and darkly funny real-life political thriller, with pitch-perfect performances.

...plays like a big Hollywood movie and succeeds despite the hundreds of ways it could have failed.

Affleck does one of his soundest acting jobs – topping The Town...
