Reviews
| Total Film - Mark Salisbury | Screenrush Barometer:  |
| 'This Coens-lite comedy squeezes every last drop of craziness from its source but is undone by a thin third act. McGregor's a good straight man, but it's Clooney's show.' |

| Evening Standard - Derek Malcolm | Screenrush Barometer: |
| 'While I'm sure that truth is indeed even stranger than this fiction, there is little here to drum that fact home with conviction. Dr Strangelove it is not, by a very long way.' |
| Little White Lies - Josh Winning | Screenrush Barometer: |
| 'Not quite as viciously funny as Burn After Reading, but a decent desert-set romp.' |
| The Sun - The Sneak | Screenrush Barometer: |
| 'Despite a strong cast's admirable efforts, though, this ends up as a bit of an ill-defined muddle that should have focused more on fact than quirkiness.' |
| Time Out - Ben Walters | Screenrush Barometer: |
| 'The result feels less like a transcendental breakthrough than a bit of conjuring misdirection. Fun trick, though.' |
| New Yorker - Anthony Lane | Screenrush Barometer: |
| 'It's also not fair that the movie lets him down. Clooney gives it everything, but what does he get in return? A void where the story is meant to be. For a while, everything ambles along like a mashup of "Three Kings," the 1999 Clooney film about the first Gulf War, and the Three Stooges, with Heslov dishing out roof tumbles, car smashes, and cheek slaps.' |
