Traitor Ratings & Reviews
Beliefnet
Nell Minow
A timely story, some welcome complexity, and a compelling performance elevate this story of terrorism above the usual bang-bang.
Wall Street Journal
Joanne Kaufman
Promising premise devolves into a by-the-numbers espionage thriller.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
The wait isn't worth it in this fearmongering, opportunistic political/spy thriller, a slippery entertainment that's all feints and few punches thrown at a fight card of indistinguishable terrorists, Muslim and otherwise.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
The script seldom rises above formula, but its respectful treatment of Islam is both unusual and welcome.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Rosenblatt
Traitor is a rare Hollywood creature: an action picture with ambiguity, a blockbuster with more questions than answers, a shoot-'em-up thriller with a sense of moral and geopolitical ambivalence.
Washington Post
Philip Kennicott
Traitor traffics in the cliches of the terrorist chase film -- including the usual stereotypes of Muslims -- while trying not to succumb to outright bigotry.
Seattle Times
Mark Rahner
First-time director Jeffrey Nachmanoff, known for The Day After Tomorrow script, wrote the screenplay. Of all people, Steve Martin came up with the idea. It is neither wild nor crazy.
San Francisco Chronicle
Reyhan Harmanci
Traitor delivers plot twists but few real surprises.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Observing the conventions of the millennial thriller, it succeeds in amping up the suspense. Yet it never fully engages the ethical conflicts it raises.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
Without its mesmerizing lead performance, Traitor easily could have devolved into direct-to-DVD fodder. Instead, Cheadle illustrates how great acting can elevate standard-issue material into something much more haunting and ambiguous.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
To call Traitor deeper than the average Hollywood thriller may not be saying much, but the film deserves credit for trying to both challenge and entertain its audience.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
A solid, intelligent international thriller showcasing the underrated Don Cheadle in an intriguing and morally ambiguous role, Traitor is the best end-of-August movie I've seen in years.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
The twisty, turny Traitor succeeds where similarly topical thrillers often fail because, like its protagonist, it plays its cards close to the vest.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Flat and just plain boring most of the time, Traitor wastes some fine actors -- Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Jeff Daniels and Said Taghmaoui -- and a topical story, finding no sparks in what should be an incendiary tale of terrorism.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
In the subgenre of post- 9/11 films, it falls between the serious, compelling Syriana and the slighter, action-packed Vantage Point.
Dallas Morning News
Tom Maurstad
A confused and unsatisfying experience with some nice moments that don't amount to much.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Traitor offers up one of the more maddeningly, gratifyingly complex lead characters seen in movies lately.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Scott Von Doviak
There's a terrorist around every corner in Traitor, to the point where you start wondering if "Steve Martin" is a pen name for Dick Cheney.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Traitor is an earnest, efficient, serviceable thriller that makes a valiant effort to untangle some of the moral complexities of the post-9/11 world.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Traitor, a somber, absorbing and only moderately preposterous new thriller written and directed by Jeffrey Nachmanoff, manages an impressive feat of economy.
