A solid take on an improbable event in American history.February 26, 2017
A riveting and exceedingly assured feature, Argo is a first-rate thriller that whilst lacking in any sense of historical relevance remains a perfectly fashioned piece of evening escapism.October 31, 2012
With Affleck's continued growth as a director, it makes you want to see what he will deliver next.February 26, 2017
As solid and engrossing as Argo is, however, don't believe all the hype -- it falls short of exceptional.February 26, 2017
Argo works 100 percent as a straight-up hard-boiled thriller, but its deeper thematic current is about trust.February 26, 2017

Let's just say that the movie's final section is so nail-bitingly tense, thanks to a skillful combination of acting, writing and crosscutting, that it puts Affleck in the big leagues as a director.February 26, 2017

Entertaining and suspenseful in old-fashioned ways.January 13, 2015
The cast helps to keep things moving -- particularly the hilarious interplay between Arkin and Goodman. And is it me, or should Bryan Cranston be in every film released?January 04, 2013
Affleck himself turns in a quietly impressive movie star performance. Tony Mendez is a kind of anti-Bourne, comfortable with his anonymity, living off his wits, not his fists.
