Black Bag - Recensioner

... brilliant, sexy, and as tight as a drum.

Like the film as a whole, it’s deliciously, lip-smackingly satisfying.

...the film provides opportunity to reflect on how far Soderbergh has come since the stagy confrontations of Sex, Lies, and Videotape.

Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett intrigue in marital espionage.

All movie-goers looking for some “fun and games” in the world of spies shouldn’t hesitate to accept this mission, as the pay off is much more than promised.

Marriage, infidelity, and espionage fit neatly inside Steven Soderbergh's Black Bag.

...this is not a Bond movie; it’s mostly about a group of highly intelligent and seriously warped people who spend their working days manipulating the cyber world, and their downtime drinking great wine and hooking up.

Taut yet thoroughly laced with levity, “Black Bag” plays like the filmic equivalent of a skillfully executed espionage mission in how tight and exact it feels.

...the pair give “Black Bag” an air of intrigue and just the right amount of volatility to keep viewers guessing and rethinking their conclusions up to the end’s thrilling denouement.

There are some 007 vibes in this taut and tidy thriller.

Cate Blanchett's spy thriller is the year's first unmissable movie.

Steven Soderbergh’s crackling thriller stars Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett as married spies with nuclear trust issues.

Clever and concise (93 minutes!), director Steven Soderbergh's spy thriller is sexy, stylish, and smart.

...an absolute gas: a zippy, London-set spy yarn about the hunt for a mole and the secret to a happy marriage.

...what a pleasure it is to see the other British spy movie tradition back in such rude – and stylish – health.
