Set against the backdrop of the early 1960s, at the height of the Cold War, THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. centers on CIA agent Solo (Man of Steel's Henry Cavill) and KGB agent Kuryakin (The Social Network's Armie Hammer). Forced to put aside longstanding hostilities, the two team up on a joint mission to stop a mysterious international criminal organization, which is bent on destabilizing the fragile balance of power through the proliferation of nuclear weapons and technology. The duo's only lead is the daughter of a vanished German scientist, who is the key to infiltrating the criminal organization, and they must race against time to find him and prevent a worldwide catastrophe.

Critics Consensus: The Man from U.N.C.L.E. tries to distract from an unremarkable story with charismatic stars and fizzy set pieces, adding up to an uneven action thriller with just enough style to overcome its lack of substance.

Emilie Black

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. is a strong outing from Guy Ritchie, one his fans and others should go back and see for the first time or get back to so they can see more of the details and art on display here.

The filmmaker plows forward utterly unburdened by even the slightest hint of substance. It’s admirable, really. This movie makes a trifle look like a T-bone steak.

A ceaselessly satisfying tiki-bar timewaster that tells a common story often punctuated by innovative idiosyncrasies like a spy pausing a chase to savor a sandwich that looks very tasty or a cohort losing herself, however briefly, to a pop song's rhythms.

There is a smugness to the whole proceeding that sometimes shows itself in the self-indulgent style and in Ritchie’s infatuation with how good his actors look. But there is also an undeniable allure.

A sequel would be welcomed with opened arms and a reserved seat by this critic.
