Brosnan's irreverent charm makes this a welcome alternative to Bond nonsense, even if it's insufficient to compensate for dreary Kinnear ...
Time Out
With great performances, including a scene stealing show stopper from Brosnan, and tight direction, this is a great crises of conscience tale.

Nice characters and situations: unfortunately, writer-director Richard Shephard didn't have much idea where to go with them.

Hope Davis' brilliant turn as Kinnear's naive but slightly naughty wife... is the cherry on director Richard Shepard's sundae.

Rating: B --
Brosnan and Kinnear are up to the challenge, both delivering very solid performances. Brosnan seems to be having a lot of fun playing off his James Bond past, while Kinnear proves to be the perfect adversary.

Rating: 8/10 --
Absurd and quirky at times, The Matador plays like a "Bizarro World" variation of a James Bond film. It's beautifully shot, strange and deeply meaningful.

... a dark comedy that is missing the laughs to be funny and the darkness to be, well, dark.
