Christy Lemire FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A "fold your laundry" movie if I've ever seen one. Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Robert Levin Newsday The Union" defies logic to such an extent that no amount of suspension of disbelief could ever justify it. Rated: 1/4 Aug 23, 2024 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times The “Mission: Impossible” series went missing in action this summer, but that’s no reason to settle for Netflix’s “The Union,” a depressing illustration of the wisdom that sometimes you shouldn’t buy — or stream — generic. Aug 19, 2024 Full Review Mini Anthikad-Chhibber The Hindu With action, ritzy locations, charismatic leads, and smart one-liners, ‘The Union’ is the very definition of time pass Oct 4, 2024 Full Review Tom Meek Cambridge Day “The Union” boasts a smattering of fine shootouts and car chases through the streets of London, but the rest is generic MacGuffin spy mash with a lazy ladling of rom-com. Rated: 2/4 Sep 23, 2024 Full Review Martin Carr martincarr.co.uk Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry have both been in better things than The Union. A London based action thriller, that proves to be neither action-packed, nor particularly thrilling. This is polished and packaged Netflix dross at its most mundane.

Vladimir P It could have been so much worse 😂 Enjoyable, relatively actiony. Id watch again. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/17/24 Full Review Tiffany F This movie is boring, predictable and cliche. There is no chemistry between Marky Mark and Halle Berry, honestly painful to watch. Don’t waste your time. Would not recommend. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/16/24 Full Review Kyle H Very enjoyable, funny and action packed. I was actually wondering why it did not make theaters first. Well worth the time Wahlberg and Berry had chemistry and the story was pretty cool. I recommend if you are looking for romantic comedy acton adventure. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review Farah R Another lackluster Mission Impossible impersonation that's deficient in characters and plot, The Union is nothing more than a forgettable action movie. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review Steve K Exactly what you think it will be Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review Phanto 1 I don't know why, but since Mission Impossible came out, a bunch of movies with "unknown organizations" or "organization that doesn't exist" came out. To be honest, I am kind of tired of them. Kingsmen was good, even the last movie, but just like Citadel(Amazon Prime), they kinda lack a good thrilling story. They aim to just explain everything about the organization with "top secret unknown organization able to operate everywhere better than any gov. organization".
