Atom User Reviews
Metacritic
Ron Howard's film of this mission is directed with a single-mindedness and attention to detail that makes it riveting.

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
It's a nail-biter and knuckle whitener of the first rank: a super real life techno thriller that reduces the fantasies of Tom Clancy and his clones to ground zero.
