Roger Ebert
"Freelance" is a defiantly lazy work, a project that echoes better films when it’s doing anything.

IMDb
Freelance is a fun movie that has a lot of chops in the comedy department, despite how forgettable it may seem.

Collider
Despite its ambitions, Freelance tries to tackle complex political themes without fully exploring them, resulting in a messy and unfulfilling experience.

Flickering Myth
The result is a head-scratching disaster that doesn’t so much as mix genres and tones but rather puzzlingly cycles through them with no apparent reason or thematic purpose.

The Guardian
Taken director Pierre Morel gets it really, really wrong with this dumb, crude and not remotely entertaining action-comedy.

Common Sense Media
Characters seem brave and ready to jump into a fight, but they're so thinly drawn and lifelessly performed that there's no sense of accomplishment or anything being learned.

Jason's Movie Blog
Despite a few minor aspects and a recognizable cast, Freelance is utterly bland and derivative action-comedy movie that lacks the necessary 'kick' for its action and is quite lackluster within its comedic nuances.

Rotten Tomatoes
This meant-to-be-forgettable action comedy relies heavily on the universal appeal of the ever-charming Cena, which makes it all the more enjoyable.
