Kate Reviews
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
It telecasts precisely how Kate's story will play out from the outset and never rises above its influences, but at least Nicolas-Troyan and the cast commit to bringing the fun while it lasts.
Slant Magazine
Wes Greene
Kate will leave you wishing that its narrative possessed the same attention to detail as its elaborately violent action set pieces.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
You're not going to get much in the way of original plot, but what you WILL get is a grindhouse of a good time with some bleak and wickedly sharp humor, screen-popping visuals and some pretty great fight choreography.
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Strauss
Winstead sells it.
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
Umair Aleem's script is so paint-by-numbers familiar that it leaves you wishing you'd watched one of the better movies it's ripping off.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
Lizard-brain satisfying...
Detroit News
Adam Graham
At this point "Kate" feels like a routine exercise in the overworked assassin genre. Been there, killed that.
Newsday
Robert Levin
This is a conventional action thriller with some worthy touches but hardly enough to make it stand out.
Polygon
Roxana Hadadi
The violence isn't quite ultra, but at least it adds some excitement to the otherwise lackluster script. Mary Elizabeth Winstead is a legit action star wasted by Netflix's Kate.
Slate
Karen Han
Kate gestures at being different, something fresh and subversive, but at the end of the day, it's just reheating old clichés.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
Look, we get it, people are looking for new stuff to watch, mindless escapism included. Still, in terms of any sort of inspiration or originality, "Kate," the movie, is every bit as D.O.A. as Kate, the character.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Christy Lemire
Mary Elizabeth Winstead has a a really incredible presence... and this movie is stylish, but it's really not anything we haven't seen before. What sets it apart is that it is incredibly, brutally violent.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Ordoña
If you're signing up for an assassin revenge movie with Winstead entertainingly kicking ass, you're going to get one.
New York Times
Teo Bugbee
The movie presents an eye-catching fantasy of a candy-colored Japanese underworld. But the exoticism feels as cheap as a whiff of a green tea and musk cologne called Tokyo wafting over a department store counter.
Cultured Vultures
Kyle Logan
Kate looks great, and features some brutal fight choreography, but lacks the narrative momentum that a simple premised action movie should have.
Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
Kate wears its influences like borrowed clothes, never quite managing to develop a style or voice that feels wholly its own.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Keith Garlington
Unfortunately the repetitive nature of this sudden wave of assassin movies has caught up to them, and "Kate" simply doesn't have enough ideas of its own.
Variety
Amy Nicholson
Winstead makes you believe, however improbably, that if a woman like Kate actually existed outside a screenwriter's imagination, she wouldn't be far off from this portrayal: isolated, mule-headed and ready for a change.
AV Club
Charles Bramesco
Even if the combat choreography that made this vein of cinema so popular is up to snuff, and Winstead does handle her steps ably even as her character breaks down, this film should aspire to be more than a delivery system for a few solid shootouts.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Courtney Lanning
It's refreshing to see Netflix deliver a solid "run and gun" film with a woman in the driver's seat. Winstead was the perfect choice to lead this movie.
