Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
Unintended silliness makes young Joan look foolish for being entranced by them, robbing her of agency when the film is desperate to prove the opposite.

The Straits Times (Singapore)
What one perceives in this movie is a particular passivity and several errors in the development of suspense, melodrama, and almost any appeal related to the spy film, or even the biographical film. [Full Review in Spanish]

La Nación (Argentina)
Its conventional if uneven structure keeps the tension mild despite subject matter rife with ethical questions and contemporary resonance.

Red Joan itself is reportedly based on the story of Melita Norwood, who passed the Soviets' information on the West's nuclear development. Sadly, Norwood's Wikipedia page is more of a thrilling yarn than most of Red Joan.
