This is altogether one of those lamentable films in which false clues are constantly tossed at the viewer -- events that could not have happened in this particular way in the light of the explanations given later. Go to Full Review Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press 04/03/2019
Serpent is a low-key espionage procedural drama that has more good moments than bad. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

12/26/2015 Waste of a lot of talented people in a confused messy dull so called thriller. See more 08/10/2012 good (entertaining) but confusing spy thrilla. See more Emilio T @MilloTPue 08/15/2011 Between 2.5 and 3. Solid spy movie in which a presumptuous deserter is subjected to a tough interrogatory to know if he tells the truth, or is a Russian spy. Maintains the tension till the end, although the bad point is that the movie doesn´t move from the initial plot line I have mentioned in the previous sentence. See more 08/13/2009 amazing cast confusing story/plot. See more Read all reviews
