While reception to the film is mixed, the general consensus is that it’s a great movie to switch off to – especially if you love Liam Neeson.
At the time of its release, Deadline wrote: “If you are looking for escapism these days – and who isn’t? – Honest Thief is a genre picture that delivers pure entertainment, nothing more but fortunately nothing less. Neeson fans won’t be disappointed.”
Meanwhile, Empire wrote: “The second half falls into familiar action tropes, but Honest Thief has some twists and turns, sly humour and a refreshing feel for its characters that raises them beyond genre types.”
