The film fictionalizes setups and collapses factual details while trying to make Eichmann's extraction play out with conventional suspense; it ends up a poor cousin to Argo.August 30, 2018
The markings here are of a fiery potboiler, but "Operation Finale" never ignites.August 29, 2018
At its best, it's something to watch if nothing's on The History Channel; at its worst, [it's] a borderline banal representation of the banality of evil.September 21, 2018
The film rests itself on the excitement of reality, which is nearly enough to make it a good movie, but not quite enough.October 01, 2018
Chris Weitz shows his versatile talent as a director who elicits performances that humanize all the characters, even the ones who seem to deserve it the least.August 31, 2018
Ben Kingsley's serene, "everybody sh*ts" reading of the character is a source of illumination around which everything else in the picture revolves.August 30, 2018
It's in the movie's lengthy middle sequence of verbal sparring between Malkin and Eichmann that Operation Finale comes into its own.September 30, 2018
This fact-based story is a carefully executed retelling of the Israeli operation to catch Eichmann in Buenos Aires and bring him to Israel to stand trial for his part in the Holocaust.September 17, 2018
Operation Finale isn't bad; it just isn't as strong as similar stories that we've already seen.August 30, 2018
A compelling if somewhat low-key historical thriller, elevated by fine performances from Kingsley and Isaac.September 21, 2018
While there are some issues with pacing and editing as well as Isaac's performance, Operation Finale is an important part of history that should not be forgotten.August 30, 2018
The pacing is off from the first scenes, thick with exposition but skimpy on clarity.
