Todd McCarthy · Variety 80.00/100.00

Narrative complexity and momentum make this a true cinematic equivalent of an absorbing page-turner.

丑嘴唇 3.00/5.00

有点虎头蛇尾了。动作上波哥大街头伏击美国车队几根火箭筒就拍得这么惊心动魄,结局的大战却只能用草草收场来形容。剧情上这些美国官员是真坏,但是到结局又不那么坏了,又突然跟主角搞起依法治国了。一个商业片的结局是让你觉得任重道远,这思想境界真是让人觉得如鲠在喉。这个电影的中心思想或许就是说世界当然是有灰色的部分,但是是说道路是可以灰色的,比如主角也可以跟毒枭谈(虽然谈着谈着就开枪了)。但是目的不能够是灰色的,反派这帮人就是心黑还做着灰色的事。詹姆斯厄尔琼斯的声音真的太迷人了!值得追完他的所有角色!

Mick LaSalle · San Francisco Chronicle 75.00/100.00

The plot alone is a thing of beauty.
