Everything here, except the action scenes, [feels] sluggish and rote.

The story feels fairly perfunctory - not to mention unnecessarily knotty - but the well-connected leads do their best to ground it.

A sporadically entertaining, modestly ambitious shoot 'em up that frequently succumbs to spelling out its subtext.

The movie offers just about all you could ask of a genre flick: poisonings, defections, a secret North Korean bank account, gloriously choreographed fights that go insanely over the top, febrile tension and doomy romance (but no sex).

As soon as "The Berlin File" takes flight with its exhilarating action set pieces, memories of any muddles evaporate amid the tension and vivid engagement with settings, from courtyards to fields.

'The Berlin File' takes Hollywood's penchant for spectacle and ADD visual neurosis to its logical albeit absurd conclusion.

[A] formulaic but solid Cold War-style spy thriller, with North Korea pinch-hitting for the Soviet Union.

There is something sharp, exciting and more original tucked within "The Berlin File" - and it is in moments a sleek, crackling film - but it all feels somehow misshapen.

Even though there's moments of exciting action and the reassembling of a government hierarchy violently taking place in front of you, The Berlin File is strapped to its restraints by its slow, meandering pace.
