The action thriller “The Fix,” directed by Guy Moshe, centers on a former Special Ops soldier leading a mission to recover a large stash of hidden cash in Tehran. The film stars Zachary Levi in the role of the operation’s leader, with Liam Neeson appearing in a supporting part, as the plot unfolds around a high-stakes retrieval under tense geopolitical pressure.
Review coverage focuses on how the movie handles its Iran-related premise and the broader tone of the story. The New York Times describes the film as a “head-spinning” mission and notes that it “won’t win any plaudits for sensitivity,” while also framing it as an action effort rather than a nuanced portrayal. The Hollywood Reporter similarly treats the film’s political thriller setup as central to the experience, but emphasizes that the movie’s choices undercut it as it progresses.
Across outlets, the common ground is the film’s basic premise: a Special Operations-led attempt to recover cash in Tehran. Differences are mostly about critical assessment—particularly around sensitivity and how well the thriller sustains its own momentum.
