Great movie! In the tradition of Hitchcock you know in advance how it will turn out, but the suspense is in trying to figure out how Cooper will get caught. Cooper's quiet intensity and the cast's l... ow-key acting throughout were perfect... But reading the posts here it appears most of today's movie fans are more entertained by reality TV! I only pray Hollywood doesn't surrender. . Full Review

A decent movie all together .. But probably the dryest movie I've ever seen.

Just saw the best intrigue as of late; and, no bang-em-up, bloody violence as in so much of today's media. Lot's of true deception by an intelligent, but religious fanatic/sexual deviant. Cooper shou... ld be nominated for an academy award for his exceptional job of playing the part of Hanssen. Am anxious to read the book........... Full Review

A very taut and intelligent espionage movie. For those looking for blood, gore, obscene language and someone getting their head blow off every other minute, look elsewhere or.....bring out your CD of... "The Departed". However, if you are looking for an intelligent movie with reality and character, I highly recommend this smart well directed real spy thriller. Full Review

Filled with tension, deception and bravura acting, Breach is a crackling tale of real-life espionage that doubles as a compelling psychological drama.Full Review

The acting is superb, particularly from the three principals.Full Review

Stephen Hunter
Washington Post

A compelling and eerily effective little drama.Full Review

Ty Burr
Boston Globe

In this steadily gripping hothouse of a thriller, it's Cooper -- funny, fierce and bug-wild -- who gives us a look into the abyss.Full Review

Peter Travers
Rolling Stone

In this film, everything comes down to the acting. Chris Cooper, one of our finest screen actors, gets inside the mysterious traitor. Ryan Phillippe has just the right gung-ho determination tempered with a touch of naivete as O'Neill. Meanwhile, Laura Linney nails the role of a career agent.Full Review
