"Who can you really trust in a world full of traitors? “Wasp Network” asks the question, but it’s too busy to stick around and find out."

—

IndieWire

"The result feels not unlike an engrossing hour-long TV pilot followed by a sizzle reel of the rest of the season."

—

A.V. Club

"On a scene by scene basis, Wasp Network can be riveting, but as a whole, it falls short."

—

Hollywood Reporter

"Carlos director Oliver Assayas concocts an exciting and labyrinthine Miami-based thriller from a cold-war espionage story..."

—

The Guardian

"While it was exciting to hear that Assayas had shifted away from his literate urban dramas, Wasp Network is ultimately a misstep."

—

Slant Magazine

"That Assayas was given so much access by the Cuban authorities is something of a miracle, and he makes the most of the country’s crumbling beauty without fetishizing the disintegration."
