Delightfully intelligent and often irreverant, it's a good yarn and a good thriller to boot.
November 01, 2007
The major asset of the film is that it succeeds in maintaining interest and suspense despite obvious viewer foreknowledge of the outcome.

[A] taut, slow-burning thriller.

A taut, suspenseful, and fascinating political thriller.

A taut, suspenseful thriller that is as exciting as the first time you saw it. Fox is wonderful as the assassin; a great cat-and-mouse feature.
April 23, 2007
Like all Zinnemann's work, this meticulously crafted political thriller is involving but not exciting due to his detached perspective and the fact that we know the outcome, that De Gaulle wasn't assassinated, but it's cast with Europe's best actors.
November 01, 2007
It's a polished and exciting thriller, mercifully unburdened with heavy political/philosophical digressions.
October 23, 2004
I wasn't prepared for how good it really is: it's not just a suspense classic, but a beautifully executed example of filmmaking.

An engrossing film about a terrorist.

Low on documentary conviction and political context, but an intriguing exercise in concealing the obvious.

Great assassination-based thriller

The details are minutely observed and, to me, just a bit boring.
