Critics Consensus

The Gray Man has the star-studded outline of an entertaining action thriller, but it's filled in with lukewarm leftovers from far better films.

This movie was full of action and explosions/violence! It kept us on the edge of our seats because there was a serious plot involved! I must say the amount of a major player getting his butt kicked & STILL able to keep going was well...A MOVIE & ENTERTAINING This was a night we did NOT want serious OR, to make sense COMPLETELY. We did enjoy the ACTION & OUTRAGEOUS explosions/crashes etc. We were NOT bored OR, grossed out in any way. We would recommend this movie to those who enjoy action/adventure & VIOLENCE. Again, it IS NOT gory though!

I don't know if I am more angry that it is a horrendous book adaptation or that it was a phenomenal action movie. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and was completely entertained. However I was also seething the entire time thinking about why they can't just use the source material that is excellent instead of just borrowing some names from it.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

It's like somebody rabbit-punching your brain for the best part of two hours, and there's a certain enjoyability in that.

Times (UK)

Throw the Bourne, Bond, Mission: Impossible and Fast and Furious franchises into a blender... and — voilà — you might end up with a film like The Gray Man; you’ll forget it the moment you stop watching it.

The Russo brothers’ supposed answer to the Bond franchise is a product of popcorn entertainment that is defined by giving the audience what they want and that’s just it.

Ilan Preskovsky

Channel24 (South Africa)

In short, the movie looks like someone painted over each frame of the film with urine. The whole thing has this sickly yellow tint to it that's even more off-putting than the usual teal-and-orange colour grading of most big-budget blockbusters.

Rated: 2.5/5
