Critics Consensus

Ava seems to have all the components of an entertaining spy thriller, but not even this spectacular cast is enough to salvage the dull, clichéd story they're given to work with.

Ava is a napping-on-the-couch movie through and through, with recognizable names and a sexy premise but no distinct personality.

2.5/4

If the action and espionage elements were executed at the same level as the dramatic and comedic exchanges and the observations about the types of people drawn to this life, Ava might've been a cult classic.

One of our most expressive actresses joining two of our most insistent hams in an action movie? How do you screw something like that up? Well, maybe by just stopping at the concept and calling it a day.

7/10

Ava provides an enjoyable and often nuanced story of family drama and international assassins. If you are looking for an easy to watch action flick, that also provides some feeling, this certainly isn’t a bad way to spend an hour and a half.

3/5

While “Ava” may not come together to form the most cohesive movie, it has enough meat on its bones to make for an entertaining escape.
