Slant Magazine

Outside of the Easy Money series, Kinnaman has rarely been allowed to utilise his tightly wound intensity this explicitly.

Variety

For all "The Informer" lacks in surface style - shot and scored as it is in functional, straight-to-VOD fashion - it remains a surprisingly well-oiled genre machine.

Independent

The Informer features an unnecessarily complicated web of conflicted loyalties and loose motivations.

The Times

It's nothing we've not seen before, but it's pulled off with slick effectiveness and has enough bumps in the road to demand your attention to the end.
