Editorial reviews
"Tom Tykwer's glossy, high finance conspiracy thriller is a spectacular looking film with an unsettling intensity."
Hollywood Reporter - Hollywood Reporter Staff (02/05/2009)
"THE INTERNATIONAL gets high marks for timeliness....It's a well-made and handsome drama....Clive Owen does a fine job..."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (02/13/2009)
"Shot by Tykwer's usual cinematographer Frank Griebe, THE INTERNATIONAL exhibits noticeable visual style as it gallivants around the world, and it also has some solid action sequences."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (02/13/2009)
3 stars out of 4 -- "The movie has a scene in it Hitchcock might have envied, a gun battle ranging up and down the ramps of the Guggenheim Museum in New York....The visuals are terrific..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (02/13/2009)
"THE INTERNATIONAL is in many ways a throwback to the monochrome urban thrillers of the 1970s, with the added topical twist of having a diabolical financial institution at its center....The compulsively watchable Owen makes for an ideal leading man..."
Washington Post (02/13/2009)
4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]n Tykwer's assured hands, and boasting dazzling photography, THE INTERNATIONAL rises tot he top of the espionage pile."
Total Film - Samuel Wigley (03/01/2009)
"Owen supplies the needed center of gravity....Owen has proved himself the thinking man and woman's action hero, serving up brains and brawn in a hypnotic wrapper."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (03/05/2009)
"Both Watts and Owen give solid performances as determined investigators, but it's the chemistry between them that makes the whole thing work."
Premiere - Premiere Staff (02/19/2009)
"[T]he star of the pic may well be NYC's Guggenheim Museum and Istanbul's Grand Bazaar, both of which figure in cool action chase sequences that pay handsome dividends."
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (02/20/2009)
