Roy Clayton (Guy Pearce - Mementó, Szigorúan bizalmas) az FBI egyik kiváló ügynöke. Nyomozómunkája során összefüggést talál egy jemeni börtöntámadás, egy nizzai robbantás és egy londoni támadás között. Nemzetközi összeesküvésre gyanakszik, a nyomok egy elitalakulat volt operációs tisztje, Samir Horn (Don Cheadle - Hotel Ruanda, Ütközések) veszélyes tevékenységére utalnak. Ám a képlet zavaros: a nyomozás során egymásnak ellentmondó bizonyítékok merülnek fel, Clayton maga sem tudja, hogy gyanusítottja a támadásokat hangolja-e össze, vagy valami sokkal mélyebb és bonyolultabb ügy húzódik meg a háttérben. Clayton, miközben az igazságot kutatja, egyre közelebb kerül Horn ügyeihez: mind mélyebbre merül az erőszak sötét és intrikus világába. (Budapest Film)

For losing almost two hours of my life to this movie, I have to thank a friend who significantly preferred it over Ridley Scott's Body of Lies. Because I really liked Scott's film, I was expecting something extraordinary and, in a way, it did come. While watching the actions in the world of terrorism, I suffered like an animal at times and shook my head in silent astonishment. The Traitor is not a complete disaster, but compared to Scott's professionally fast-paced popcorn flick, all the dramatic shortcomings, slower pace, and overall dullness of the film, as well as the lack of credibility and false tones in the script, become fully apparent. The final showdown with the army of terrorists seems seemingly impressive, but in reality, it is rather laughable. I was entertained for the first 15 minutes. Overall impression: 25%.

Egy film, amely a végén megpróbálja helyrehozni azt, amit korábban végig elrontott. Sőt, ezt a végső fordulatot úgy tálalja, mint egy nagy csattanót, ejnye-bejnye. Számomra túlságosan dramaturgiailag ellentmondásos.

A clever, thoughtful, intelligently delivered "small" film about big things, based primarily on excellent actors - Don Cheadle is great by default, Guy Pearce is back in form years later - and a penetrating look into the world of Islamic terrorism. However, the plot is not that great (not a lot happens in two hours) and the dialogues, although they contain a lot of life wisdom, are in fact repetitive in the second half. I feel sad not giving this 4 stars for the fantastic actors alone, but compared to the cynical glossators of Scott's Body of Lies, Traitor loses out quite significantly. Nachmanoff should have had his screenplay written by someone with a stronger authorial imprint because this will soon be forgotten. Which is too bad. 3 ½.

Current as anything; unclichéd, miles away from the regular movie perspective on terrorism. Nothing here is black or white. Maybe only the actors. This is a mix of the concepts of Sleeper Cell and The Believer. It’s low-key, worrying, rich in opinion, needlessly unsimplistic, down-to-earth and convincing, unfolds at a really relaxed tempo and due to that in places it’s almost un-movie-like. In spite (or perhaps because) of that my enthusiasm for it knew no bounds. At least in the first half, then after all it falls into the “one man against everybody else" genre rut. But it’s still excellent right up until the closing ten minutes. All of the above applies too, but in a completely opposite stance. I would have welcomed this with open arms in a Hollywood blockbuster, but in this case I feel like sending the person responsible to a work camp in Yemen. For life.

A well made spy thriller that you will completely forget about within the next hour. I guess if you’re going to make something like this, you have to know how -)
