Michael Rechtshaffen

Los Angeles Times

With its solid performances, nice attention to period detail and a foreboding rumble of a symphonic score by Jan Duszynski, Jack Strong adds a unique Eastern Bloc POV to the enduring Cold War movie arsenal.

Stephen Dalton

The Hollywood Reporter

Jack Strong is a solid addition to the ever-growing canon of films in which former Eastern Bloc nations reflect on their troubled Communist past.

Giuseppe Sedia

Kino Mania

Jack Strong has the feel of a vintage spy movie, garnished with antiquated spy gadgets, and brings to mind Ben Affleck’s big hit, Argo (2012). The low-speed car chase in the snow with Communist-era vehicles is a small pearl of cinematic craft.

Rated: 3/5

It works well enough thanks to Wilson's performances. Good but not especially memorable.

Important story to tell about Polish defectors and their work to help the USA against Russia. It could've been better, but they tried to make it out to be more than it was. It was a Polish film.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Polish cinema has at last produced an understandable movie. Loved "Bridge of Spies" more in terms of "show" but I rate this movie much higher in terms of authentic representation of Polish climate of those years.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
