Five years into his retirement, CIA veteran Peter Devereaux (Pierce Brosnan) is pulled back into service to help retrieve a Russian agent -- also his former lover -- who has incriminating evidence on Federov, a corrupt Russian leader. When a different CIA team, led by Devereaux's former protege (Luke Bracey), shows up, the mission goes south and Devereaux's ex-lover is killed. Now a rogue agent, Devereaux drags a relief worker (Olga Kurylenko) along on his mission to settle the score.

Critics Consensus

The November Man has a few of the ingredients necessary for a better-than-average spy thriller, making it all the more disappointing that it falls back on dull genre clichés.

Observer (UK)

It all looks terribly old-fashioned and a little old-hat.

Somewhat generic thriller buoyed by Brosnan's badass Bondness.

Gone With The Twins

Immediately establishes tenseness and awe, through hardy wisecracks, brief character development, and nerve-wracking action.

Rated: 6/10

Behind The Lens

Director Roger Donaldson, reteaming with his 'Dante's Peak' star, [Pierce] Brosnan, excels at the interplay of espionage and red herrings, keeping us on our toes with plot points and twists and turns while dazzling with some well-timed action sequences.

Um competente thriller de espionagem. Uma trama envolvente e ações boas. Para quem curte esse tipo de gênero, pode gostar muito desse filme. Apesar de alguns arcos serem mal desenvolvidos e alguns clichês do gênero, ainda é válido. Pierce Brosnan retorna muito bem ao âmbito da espionagem, mas com uma abordagem mais realista.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

It wasn't the greatest spy flick ever. But it was enjoyable enough as a fantasy conspiracy who's the real bad guy kind of thing. I probably won't watch it a second time, but it was a passible way to spend a couple hours.
