Disappointing - great first half - Argylle review by AER
For the first half, Argylle is very entertaining and fun to watch. However a twist around the halfway mark bins anything interesting and sets a course towards generic SFX-laden action. Not all is lost though, a few action sequences stand out but on the whole, this could've been way better if it stuck to its guns and knew where its strengths lay. Sam Rockwell, Bryce Dallas Howard and Bryan Cranston are all good, so the most undemanding viewer might find some things to enjoy.
