Action. Thriller When an international team of former Cold War intelligence adversaries meet in a warehouse, their adventure of friendship, intrigue and betrayal has just begun. Like the masterless Samurai of ages past, these modern day Ronin are embarking on their final covert mission -- to recover a mysterious briefcase for an unknown employer and to stay alive.

	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy Variety	"Ronin reps a pleasurable throwback to the sort of gritty, low-tech international thriller that was a staple of the 1960s"	POS
United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"Although laced with adrenaline and flavored with noirish seasoning, John Frankenheimer's Ronin is a disappointingly conventional thriller"	NEG
United States	Rita Kempley The Washington Post	"A superbly mounted steeplechase (...) Unlike the ronin, the heroes of a Japanese legend, these guys are still searching for a story"	POS
