Entertainment Weekly
A conventionally heightened series of escapes and clashes and hide-and-seek gambits, yet the way the film has been made, nothing that happens seems inevitable -- which is to say, anything seems possible. There's a word for that sensation. It's called excitement. - 90
The New York Times
This is high-speed action realism carried off with the dexterity of a magician pulling a hundred rabbits out of a hat in one graceful gesture. The crowning flourish is an extended car chase through the streets and tunnels of Moscow that ranks as one of the three or four most exciting demolition derbies ever filmed. - 88
Chicago Tribune
Close to perfect example of an expertly designed and executed thriller. - 88
Charlotte Observer
Trumping its predecessor with a tauter plot, a lower body count and just as many edge-of-the-seat jolts. - 75
Miami Herald
Achieves an assaultive intensity that adds a level of visceral excitement to car chases, mano-a-mano showdowns -- even simple conversations. It's a style that takes some getting used to -- the images flit by at near-subliminal speeds -- but proves tremendously effective. - 70
Variety
The action is confusing at first and the hyperventilated editing style at times goes beyond the pale, so pic ultimately emerges as an erratic but not unworthy sequel to its gritty, genre-invigorating predecessor. - 63
Philadelphia Inquirer
Supremacy has thrills, but without Potente's presence, it loses its soul. - 60
The Hollywood Reporter
Like its various post-Cold War European locations, the film remains chilly and distant. Every time you feel like you're finally grabbing hold of something involving, the picture once again spins frustratingly out of reach.
