Top Critics' Reviews

Rotten: The film is partly a tutorial on the tense relations among Taiwan (the island of Formosa), the Chinese mainland and the United States, and partly a clumsy cloak-and-dagger political thriller. – Stephen Holden, New York Times, Jun 24, 2010

Rotten: A mostly pedestrian political thriller whose basis in true events adds little to the film's excitement or entertainment value. – Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times, Jun 24, 2010

Rotten: Neither the investigation nor the suspense (hobbled by editorializing) have much impact; the movie, necessarily shot in Thailand, plays like secret-history tourism. – Nicolas Rapold, Village Voice, Jun 24, 2010

Rotten: This is an unabashedly pro-democracy message movie. Judged strictly as drama, it's pretty routine. – Walter V. Addiego, San Francisco Chronicle, Jun 24, 2010
