Critics Consensus

Allied has its moments, but doesn't quite achieve epic wartime romance status -- a disappointment made more profound by the dazzling talent assembled on either side of the camera.

Phew! They don't make them like this any more. Come to think of it, they never have made them quite like this. A most unfamiliar return to the familiar.

The Age (Australia)

For all the effort poured into period recreation, the world of the film remains abstract, bordering on fantasy.

Rated: 3.5/5

Deep Focus Review

Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard bring elegant performances to an intelligent and stylish picture, which gradually reveals a profound emotional resonance under its outward restraint.

Rated: 4/4

Film Freak Central

Allied shows Zemeckis hasn't lost his sense of humour. He may, however, have lost his groove.

Like an average cover version of a classic song, Zemeckis drama makes all the right noises for a 40s war-time thriller, but it doesnt have any of the heart

Whilst it could be seen as a Hollywood sentimentality project, it is warm, sincere, and beautiful. The story is solid, and the performances are strong

"Allied" is a gripping World War II thriller directed by Robert Zemeckis, starring Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard. The film follows intelligence officer Max Vatan (Pitt) and French Resistance fighter Marianne Beauséjour (Cotillard) as they fall in love during a dangerous mission in Casablanca. Their relationship is put to the ultimate test when Max is tasked with investigating whether Marianne is a German spy. The film is visually stunning, with impressive period detail and thrilling action sequences. Pitt and Cotillard deliver compelling performances, capturing the emotional complexity of their characters' tumultuous romance. While the Pacing may lag in parts, "Allied" is a suspenseful and captivating film that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats until the very end.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
