	Author	Review
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"If the story made more sense and the humor were more abundant, this could have been a bona-fide winner. Instead it falls smack in the realm of forgettably mediocre"	NEG
United States	Amy Biancolli Houston Chronicle	"This breezy action comedy is a noisy affirmation that life goes on after 50, that retirement doesn't mean redundancy, and that nobody - young or old - can wear a evening gown like Mirren"	POS
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"RED is neither a good movie nor a bad one. It features actors we like doing things we wish were more interesting (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"	NEU
United States	Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News	"An action comedy as entertaining to watch as it evidently was to make (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Ty Burr Boston Globe	"What might have been a guilty-pleasure romp is hobbled by poor direction, sloppy pacing, and a story line that can't decide whether it's farce or a retreat"	NEG
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"It is possible to have a good time at RED, but it is not a very good movie. It doesn't really try to be, and given the present state of the Hollywood economy, this may be a wise choice"	NEU
