Most Wanted

"A watchable but standard-issue thriller (...) [It] does its own job with proficient integrity, but as much inventiveness as you’d guess from that all-purpose placeholder of a title. 

"A film like 'Most Wanted' is a welcome one, featuring a well-told version of this all-too-common real-world narrative." 

"[It] runs a little long and a little ragged, but it’s still a solid adaptation of a mind-boggling, true-life story.(…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"[It] isn't as generic as its title. But its characters and story have just as much trouble making a strong impression (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)" 

"With echoes of 'Midnight Express (...) 'Most Wanted' is far more sophisticated (...) Roby has such a terrific eye for faces and an incisive way of photographing his large cast" 

"Quick and pretty constant cutting between different threads of this story keep 'Most Wanted' from feeling as long as it actually is, but it also keeps us from committing fully to any one story" 

"The result is a three-pronged narrative that inventively plays with structure and time, allowing the natural dramatic tension of Malarek’s international chase to nicely dovetail with Léger’s ugly experiences in the criminal justice system (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" 

"The film evokes those gritty 1970s true-crime films such as Midnight Express and The French Connection' (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
