[A] true life-based spy thriller set in the early 1960s....With its wood-paneled rooms and pluming cigarette smoke, THE COURIER is espionage cinema at its most decorous...
New York Times
Adler and his team of screenwriters have crafted a solid plot... But the locations for these big battles are so cramped and unexciting that even a star as fun to watch as Kurylenko can just barely shine.

Rating: 0/4 --
In the moronic thriller The Courier, nothing works on any level, but most of all where it matters most-a script that makes sense.

Observer
Ex 'Bond girl' Kurylenko kicks ass against a motley crew of musclebound, tattooed masculinity, with an ironic smile that reminds us this is little more than a fun genre ride - with viciously gory kills.

Rating: 2/5 --
Aside from [Olga] Kurylenko's steely presence [Zackary] Adler seems only interested in severe grisliness and macho posturing. If the script had even a hint of character nuance, the movie might have been somewhat gripping too.

Shadows on the Wall
3 stars out of 4 -- Benedict Cumberbatch delivers an appealing, technically tricky performance in THE COURIER...
Washington Post
Rating: 1/5 --
What you need to know is that most of the action takes place in a London multi-storey car park, some of the supporting performances are dreadful, and that this has no place on anyone's Christmas viewing list.
