All the Old Knives Reviews

Although the film may not achieve the absorbing slow-burn thriller status to which it aspires, it’s still better than a cut-and-paste pastiche.

| Oct 31, 2023

Executed in a less than dull way. Film gets better as it goes on but is really only elevated from the two main performances.

| Jul 25, 2023

All the Old Knives is such a good movie that it makes me sad. I say “sad” because we’re living in a time when a movie like this isn’t getting a theatrical release and has been relegated to a digital release.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 20, 2023

This blunt weapon is probably best left at the bottom of the drawer.

| Mar 30, 2023

.... a heady and intelligent cloak-and-dagger mystery steeped in governmental intrigue, deep-rooted espionage, and betrayal.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 28, 2023

A spy movie with a different touch, not the we all live happy ever after. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 31, 2022

This ill-fated love story in the guise of neo-noir espionage thriller doesn’t rank high within the genre.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 13, 2022

Very old-school… it defines relatable characters, sets up a world, a conflict with stakes, builds suspense, and proposes an enigma that will surely be solved at the end. Nothing more or less than that. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 12, 2022

Pine and Newton are mesmerizing in this atmospheric slow-burn thriller, where even simple dialog is tinged with suspense and mystery. Spy actioners are a dime a dozen, but I wish there were more spy romance thrillers in Hollywood like this one.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 11, 2022

Knives isn’t a gangbuster flick by any means, but it will appeal to fans of spycraft on celluloid.

| May 9, 2022

All The Old Knives is a spy thriller to watch, told in an unusual way.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 5, 2022

A classy and intelligent addition to the espionage genre.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 29, 2022

Metz keeps the tone hushed and soft, with delicately drifting light playing through the restaurant.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 23, 2022

Does "All the Old Knives" make the cut? Like a dull edged butter knife, the answer is no.

| Original Score: D | Apr 23, 2022

Over-written, derivative guff, which unfolds like a knock-off of the 온라인카지노추천 drama Homeland (when it was good)...

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 22, 2022

It’s certainly not a waste of time. But it’s also not one of those movies you can’t wait to tell someone else about. You know the feeling.

| Apr 21, 2022

All the Old Knives struggles to ignite much interest in its by-the-numbers espionage narrative.

| Apr 20, 2022

All the Old Knives is a heady cocktail of chemistry and suspense, served up in a taut package.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 20, 2022

All The Old Knives commits to its old-school sentimentality of a 90s movie, especially in the final 20 mins. How you react to such old-school methods might dictate how you look at the film at large.

| Original Score: 3 | Apr 19, 2022

Break-ups are bad. Especially when the individuals involved genuinely loved each other. But do you know what can complicate an already complicated situation? Your ex having contributed to hundreds of deaths in a plane hijacking.
