Spenser Confidential Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
An ending that teases the possibility of sequels, with Wahlberg's Spenser tackling more cases of police officers and emergency personnel who have been falsely accused of crimes, should elicit nothing but groans.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...an entertaining drama/thriller that remains pitched at the level of a fairly run-of-the-mill television procedural...
The Spool
Jonah Koslofsky
Never comes close to justifying its own existence outside of an ego-stroking exercise for Berg and Wahlberg.
Newsday
Robert Levin
There are many things to like about Mark Wahlberg as an actor, but he's not very good when his characters have to put their thinking cap on.
Decider
John Serba
It moves along quick 'n' stoopid 'n' obnoxious 'n' slightly self-aware 'n' manly 'n' a bit sexist, and all so much more reasonable than a Michael Bay movie.
Den of Geek
Nick Harley
Even star Mark Wahlberg seems bored with Netflix's joyless and messy action adaptation.
Lyles' Movie Files
Jeffrey Lyles
Much like The Equalizer became an unexpected franchise vehicle for Denzel Washington, Spenser Confidential successfully adapts a vigilante style TV series.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
There's almost nothing about this ultra-disposable programmer that doesn't feel derivative to the point of self-parody.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
A coda sets up a sequel. There are worse things to look forward to.
RogerEbert.com
Kristy Puchko
An insipid buddy-cop mystery that feels like a forgotten artifact of the 1980s.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
As a pilot episode for a rebooted "Spenser: For Hire," "Spenser Confidential" is just corny enough to work. But as a standalone story, it's about as welcome as a curse from the Great Bambino.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
The business of catching and killing unfolds so schematically that it's hard to invest much in Confidential's reinforced-cardboard characters and bloody plod of a plot.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
It's a fantastically over-the-top, drive-in B-movie for the streaming generation.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Other than the obvious star power, this tired action-comedy directed by the actor's frequent collaborator Peter Berg feels more like the pilot of a short-lived summer broadcast television series than the film franchise to which it clearly aspires.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
There are bad cops, and there are bad movies, and there are bad Boston accents, and there are bad movies about bad cops featuring bad Boston accents, namely "Spenser Confidential."
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
The movie passes the time, and has a decent sense of humor.
New York Times
Elisabeth Vincentelli
The prospect of spending more time with this crew is not a bad one.
Variety
Peter Debruge
In their most relaxed collaboration yet, Berg allows the star's natural charisma to define the character, adapting Spenser to Wahlberg's persona rather than the other way around.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
A possible sequel is teased at the end of this adventure, and that wouldn't be a half bad idea.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
It's not even clear why the film is called "Spenser Confidential." There's nothing hush-hush about it except this: Everyone associated with the film might want to keep that confidential.
