What to Know

Critics Consensus

Even if it isn't as engaging as the real-life story that inspired it, Rogue Agent remains a well-acted and appealingly twisty suspense thriller.

Manuel Betancourt Variety 09/28/2022
In Adam Patterson and Declan Lawn’s diligently crafted British caper “Rogue Agent,” the lines between a rakish spy and a dashing lover are blurred in the figure of Robert Freegard. Go to Full Review

"Perhaps the prurient unravelings of Freegard’s greatest hits is best left to the nonfiction projects, but even with the liberties of narrative adaptation, Lawn and Patterson leave the psychological and emotional depths of this story unexplored." Go to Full Review
Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (LAist) 08/12/2022
There was not enough story here to make a real movie. Go to Full Review
Lee Jutton Film Inquiry 08/20/2022
While one cannot deny the simple joys of watching two actors as nimble and attractive as Arterton and Norton play cat and mouse, Rogue Agent never quite lives up to its extraordinary premise. Go to Full Review
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue 08/19/2022
Although the film paints Freegard as a rather one-dimensional villain, the screenplay provides enough procedural surprises to maintain the suspense. Go to Full Review
Peter Canavese Groucho Reviews 08/19/2022
2.5/4
This true story of a fraudster's been fictionalized into a victim-turned-avenger feminist triumph. It works due to the anti-chemistry of its two leads. Go to Full Review

Stan M 08/18/2022 starts off a little slow. but picks up about halfway through. good flick if you stick with it. See more A sincere movie fan 08/14/2022 Very interesting with a great cast. I could not look away for fear I would miss something. Shows you can have a great movie experience without the need to sell itself through violence alone. Truly a movie for adults and a warning to all about the current state of people trying to con others. See more carl h May 23 Really enjoyed it, love the revenge aspect ina movie.It wasn't too hard to follow I often get lost somewhat in films with involved plots.I watched it alone as the wife was not home. I will happily watch it again with her at a later date See more John A May 4 It maybe well acted but the first half was slow and the rest lacked passion despite various attempts to generate some. Sufficient to just keep one interested but left with a feeling of - so what, next. See more Dan D Mar 2 I found it hard to believe the shear stupidity of the characters in this movie. While i get this was based on true events, gullibility doesn't really cover it. I get that some people can sound convincing, but when a lawyer is presented with information that is easily proven or denied, then WTF... his name was an alias that couldn't be corroboated...he's an agent but when his name is searched there is no backstop to avert prying eyes...really...c'mon. See more B N @Kabeju Feb 16 I’d have loved to watch this on a 3 episode series to get more details. I like James N for that I enjoyed the based on real life story. I didn’t like the acting of the main female character. Could have been better but overall was good and story keep me interested. See more Read all reviews
