Critics Consensus

Like any good improv comedy skit, Deep Cover treats an amusing setup with a freewheeling sense of fun while giving each of its performers their time to shine.

Craig Mathieson

The Age (Australia)

...Sean Bean, Paddy Considine and Ian McShane all try to make sense of the amateurs, some of whom are very good at playing actors who aren’t funny.

Rated: 3/5

The Times (UK)

... It works out rather well, combining deadpan gags with some brisk pacing.

The ensemble is packed with seasoned acting professionals across the board, who more than sell their drunk scenes and deliver more than a few laughs on their way to redemption.

Deep Cover” was fun, fast-paced and full of actors who were enjoyable to watch. The script was clever and full of little details that ran through and drew me in. The twists were plentiful and speedy.

Mac the Movie Guy

Bloom is a scene stealer, playing a classically trained actor who once had a brush with fame, but is now relegated to commercials. He’s very deadpan, and very method, and its the best performance I’ve seen from him in years.

Rated: 68/100

If you're looking for a decent laugh that doesn't require you to think too much, you could certainly do a lot worse.

Great movie! Really enjoyed it. Funny. Very different kind of comedy/crime drama.

One of the funniest films I have ever seen, as well as being incredible in all other regards. The actors are all great in their roles, with the main group especially being incredible. Orlando Bloom in particular is great in this and I laughed out loud multiple times at his funny scenes.

This is an absolute 5 bagger for any fan of Guy Richie's earlier work. It is slower paced, a more linear plot, less star power, but still pulls off the same fun magic of the cartoonish but mature ride of the British underworld. Subtle visual and subversive jokes abound - giving it a definite rewatch ability. Acting is perfect for the style of the movie, everyone crushed their roles. Orlando Bloom really stood out, His charm is timeless. Definitely worth a watch. 5 bags of popcorn

Thoroughly enjoyable - there was something refreshing about this movie - maybe it was just the blend of the lead cast or the fact that it didn't feel like it was attempting to reinvent the wheel, be overly edgy or different? Somehow avoiding those things made it feel more unique then many films out there and a lot of fun. In a sea of average streaming movies, this was significantly above par and in a past life would have been a mainstream blockbuster
