	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"A by-the-numbers macho adventure (...) there’s not much real spark to it (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"Jordan's tough but anguished performance is the best reason to see this workaday franchise launch (...) a sign of how much the Clancy worldview has faded"	NEU
United States	Peter Travers ABC News	"It’s taken decades to get Clancy’s book on film and you can feel the bumps in the road (...) But it should have been better than this (…) Just make it more playful next time, please, less grim and perfunctory"	NEG
United States	Odie Henderson rogerebert.com	"Despite endless gunfire and a lot of shit blowing up, most of the action sequences fail to quicken the pulse (...) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"The result is a solid entry in the Clancy screen canon (...) It doesn't reinvent the genre, but nor does it try to fix what's not broken, which should work just fine for Clancy's legions of readers."	POS
United States	Leah Greenblatt Entertainment Weekly	"A bloody, too-familiar litany of Cold War intrigue and pulp-paperback cliché."	NEG
United States	Alonso Duralde The Wrap	"It’s a movie that goes out of its way to be blandly competent (...) Jordan brings a much needed dose of humanity to a story that’s otherwise thuddingly familiar."	NEU
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"It’s a movie locked in a tedious custody battle between legacy and potential, too safe to whet appetites for what’s to come while also too sequel-oriented to stand on its own two legs."	NEG
United States	David Crow Den of Geek	"Luckily, even at its most cliché, 'Without Remorse' does have a lot going for it whenever Jordan gets unleashed by the script (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Jesse Hassenger AV Club	"Without Remorse wastes Michael B. Jordan’s star power"	NEG
United States	Tara McNamara Common Sense Media	"Phenomenal action sequences with enormous set pieces will take your breath away, but this book-based thriller suffers on the story front."	NEU
United States	Johnny Oleksinski New York Post	"I watched it. I have remorse (...) An overly familiar revenge film that bears no resemblance to the original novel (...) Even with a star as charismatic and physically formidable as Jordan, audiences won’t be hungry for a single sequel (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Nick De Semlyen Empire	"The action is sharp and imaginative, and Jordan strongly establishes his action-flick credentials. But story-wise it’s all very familiar and more than a little dour (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
