Rogue Agent Reviews
In Adam Patterson and Declan Lawn’s diligently crafted British caper “Rogue Agent,” the lines between a rakish spy and a dashing lover are blurred in the figure of Robert Freegard.
While one cannot deny the simple joys of watching two actors as nimble and attractive as Arterton and Norton play cat and mouse, Rogue Agent never quite lives up to its extraordinary premise.
Although the film paints Freegard as a rather one-dimensional villain, the screenplay provides enough procedural surprises to maintain the suspense.
This true story of a fraudster's been fictionalized into a victim-turned-avenger feminist triumph. It works due to the anti-chemistry of its two leads.
James Norton & Gemma Arterton are the reason to see this, the movie plays more like a drama than a spy thriller it's made out to be. I always enjoy seeing Norton on screen and it’s especially gratifying to see him explore his dark side.
The dramatization is not worth watching.
It’s a slow-burning yet meticulously paced fact-based story that takes its time setting up its pieces. But once you get a sense for what’s happening, it’s hard not to be gripped by this appalling and kinda crazy true account.
"Perhaps the prurient unravelings of Freegard’s greatest hits is best left to the nonfiction projects, but even with the liberties of narrative adaptation, Lawn and Patterson leave the psychological and emotional depths of this story unexplored."
Rogue Agent is a thrilling cat-and-mouse game about a woman heartbroken but driven by her insatiable need for justice against a vile man.
Rogue Agent...hums when focusing on Norton and Arterton, a dynamic duo bringing a seductive, dangerous nature to their (mostly) linear story.
Rogue Agent is simply too streamlined in its structure for its own elegant simplicity to be effective.
While it overstays its welcome a bit too much, Arterton does a great job bringing a level of humanity and understanding to the would-be victim.
Just deeply disappointing. A documentary would have been much more interesting.
There was not enough story here to make a real movie.
The true-crime tale, anchored by Norton and Arterton, is both classy and chilling on the windy road to the fiend’s comeuppance.
Norton is excellent at positing, with glances and unusual reactions, a rather desperate inner life for his character.
Both the script and a pair of lead performances from Gemma Arterton and James Norton elevate this familiar recipe of emotional and economic predation.
Two hours fly by in this tense outing, and as lovely as Norton was in Grantchester, he’s nuthin’ but a nightmare here.
Plenty fascinated by the abridged version of this saga — bad men are out there — but you’ll wish for that darker, less cleanly shaped telling the more you think about its scarier contours.
The film is ultimately a thoughtful study of how anyone, no matter how vulnerable or self-assured, can be fooled by someone who projects confidence and expertise.
