“The Informer” nimbly plays within its gritty crime genre, maintaining a propulsive pace that keeps its audience on their toes. It all tangibly plays out within the moral malaise of underworld violence and crooked law enforcement.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 22, 2022

…The Informer’s generic title hides a sober, fairly gripping thriller that’s something of an antidote to much of the silver-screen’s childish fare…

The Informant succeeds with maintaining the enigma and certain expectations but fails in its way of solving various plot aspects and leading its characters. [Full Review in Spanish]

The first [part] and the one that works best is... the one that takes place in the streets. [Full review in Spanish]

The Informer is ultimately for people who just want to see some forgettable fight scenes and other mindless violence amid a lot of plot holes. This movie is not for people who want to see a compelling and well-written crime drama.

Whilst The Informer doesn't revolutionise the crime genre, it doesn't need to, as audiences should get exactly what they expected and hopefully more.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 14, 2020

Nothing new to see here, but grading on the Pandemic Curve, it's perfectly fine...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 11, 2020

The Informer is not a good movie, but it does manage to waste an enormous amount of talent and that's impressive!

There are so many other B-level crime thrillers that get the job done much better.

| Nov 10, 2020

The story is overly familiar and takes some twists and turns that stretch credibility, but "The Informer" is still a modestly involving thriller.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 9, 2020

Joel Kinnaman is taking names in true action movie-star fashion.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 7, 2020

"The Informer" isn't bad. It's just nothing special.

I was held along with the suspense and I enjoyed it enough to stay along for the ride.

The Informer is a hard-bitten thriller that won't insult your intelligence.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Nov 7, 2020

A solid crime flick whose heart rate never rises to a point commensurate with the many layers of danger its eponymous protagonist faces.

| Nov 6, 2020

May not be the most inspired crime-thriller ... but there's some good moments towards the end that makes it not feel like wasted time to watch it

| Nov 6, 2020

The movie has a surfeit of the sudden reversals and interlocking loyalties that can make for an absorbing time killer.

| Nov 5, 2020

"The Informer" is like an experiment in whether or not a cool cast can make uninspired material worth watching.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 5, 2020

Throw it on and forget your troubles.

| Original Score: B- | Nov 5, 2020

A thriller shipped with familiar parts but also a flair for character work and consequences that come from codes rooted in carnage. It lays its charges well amid a minefield of mistrust, triggering displays of power both vulgar or barely visible.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Nov 3, 2020
