this is a film about being the only healthy couple in your toxic friend group
Angie HanMar 12, 2025I do think I’m going to forget about this movie come “best of 2025” time because of how early in the year and devoid of spectacle it is but from where I am standing right now, it’s absolutely perfect. So smart, and so sexy, without ever being sensual. Real lover cinema.…

This is what we call an old school certified banger
jonathan fujiiMar 17, 2025If I had to criticize something I would say that I straight up do not like all the halation! Very distracting in every single scene! Why he do that. Damn if I don't still love this movie a lot. Dinner scenes are so good, as is the polygraph. Marisa Abela runs away with the…

10/10 A typical and cool espionage film from Steven Soderbergh, this has that “Ocean’s” feel. A great cast who all light up the screen. Performance are executed with precision and delivered with style. Will be in my re-watch list. A must watch for those Spy fan’s out there.
Black Bag turned Bin Bag. Sonderberg is the definition of hit and miss, and nearly all his films follow that recipe. I love the casting and dialogue, both hit entertainment with such sharp style. Although the characters are mostly boring, I guess spies realistically would be, but I found myself…

Excellent film. Lots of good performances. All the execution you expect of Soderbergh but significantly more accessible than a lot of his stuff. Well made spy show without the big budget or set pieces that most require. Also bonus points for a tight 90 minutes.
The main characters' dynamic was incredibly interesting and intense. The main plot/mystery wasn't as intricate as they were trying to make you believe, but overall it was a solid 8/10 for me.

Not my kind of film. It felt like a play for some reason, just didn’t understand it. It’s a hit and miss film some people will enjoy it some people won’t. I mean cast was pretty good. It was made pretty well but I just didn’t really like the plot. 4/10 for me

Metacritic
Written by David Koepp, who also penned Soderbergh’s Kimi and Presence, Black Bag displays the twists and intrigue you’d expect from a top-rate spy flick, along with some scintillating dialogue. But it’s the movie’s intellectual provocation and formal invention that marks it among Soderbergh’s best work.
OK, Steven Soderbergh’s sleek, sexy spy thriller is sometimes too cool for school. But oh the twisted, erotic mischief dished out by dynamos Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbinder as married spies, still hot for each other but wondering if the other is a mole for the wrong side.
Black Bag is engaging and refreshing precisely because it is so personal, raising the stakes to the highest level without having to be extravagant in its set pieces.
