Critics consensus

“A Call to Spy overcomes a surprising lack of tension with an overall engaging tribute to an oft-overlooked group of World War II heroes.”

Jake Wilson

RTThe Age (Australia)Dec 29, 2020

Given the potential of the material, there's no excuse for the dullness of A Call To Spy, a film as clumsy as its title.

U

Udita Jhunjhunwala

RTScroll.inDec 16, 2020

At 123 minutes, the narrative misses out on building suspense, but the emotional core of the story and the fascinating individuals keep the viewer curious.

Linda Marric

RTThe Jewish ChronicleNov 12, 2020

This is a film with big ideas but a modest budget, and sadly that is its biggest downfall.

M

RTReady Steady CutSep 3, 2022

A Call to Spy is a dull, stagnant history lesson when it should be anything but.
