Peter Devereaux-t (Pierce Brosnan), a rendkívül veszélyes ex-CIA ügynököt egykor a legjobb kémek között tartották számon. Akik ismerték, csak úgy nevezték, November Man: ahol feltűnt a vérprofi CIA-s mérhetetlen pusztítást hagyott maga mögött. És most újra vissza kell szállnia a játszmába: védelmére kel egy szemtanúnak, Alice Fourniernak (Olga Kurylenko), akit az ügynökség kész megölni, nehogy fény derüljön egy évtizede őrzött titkos összeesküvésre. Peter maga is célponttá válik. Egykori barátját, legtehetségesebb tanítványát, David Masont (Luke Bracey) küldik a nyomába, hogy végleg kiiktassa őt. A macska egér játszmában Devereaux már nem tudja kiben bízhat. Itt már nincsenek szabályok, nincsenek szövetségesek. Az egykori legjobb kém egyszemélyes háborúban veszi fel a harcot: miközben igyekszik megvédeni pártfogoltját, a CIA korrupt ügynökeit is ki kell iktatnia. (Freeman Film)

Do you want an old-school espionage ride in a visual style for the new millennium, but you can’t find it? The Balkans offer a raw and inhospitable setting that is not sufficiently used, the action is terribly poorly directed, and it rather resembles the best of the 1980s through editing and cinematography. Pierce Brosnan handles it perfectly, and his character as an ex-CIA operative is believable, but the story has so many twists and contrivances, so many things happening by chance at exactly the right moment when the script needs it, that it's impossible to enjoy it even with a great sense of humor. Furthermore, it seems that Brosnan, unlike someone like Sean Penn (The Gunman), obviously no longer wants to go into clear and physically demanding full contact combat scenes, and that is a pity.

It wasn't bad. Action-wise, November Man doesn't offer much, only one close-range fight and it’s too edited. The R-rated shootouts and thrilling car chases are nice to watch, though. Pierce Brosnan and Olga Kurylenko are amazing, the rest of the cast doesn't impress much. So in one sentence it's a pretty decent bloody spy action ride that doesn't disappoint, but doesn't impress either. Fortunately, there is no danger of boredom. 65%.

American studios don't pay screenwriters such small money that they can't create somewhat more believable characters and more credible stories. The November Man is watchable, but I had no enthusiasm for it. Similar stories are brought to us by American action movies 12 times a year. Brosnan got to play a confident seasoned action hero in his old age, good for him. Overall impression: 40%.

A fantastic action movie with a gripping story that keeps you hooked, and on top of that, a hero who can carry the whole hour and three-quarters effortlessly. Pierce Brosnan demonstrates that he still has what it takes for action roles, especially ones that are appropriately tough and unforgiving. He nailed this one, and I could imagine him grabbing my attention in other films as well.
