[2] The New York Times complimented, The Good Traitor "shows how the energies of public and private worlds course back and forth". [3] Variety was less complimentary, "Fascinating backroom politics circa WWII are undermined by banal marital melodrama in Danish director Christina Rosendahl's The Good Traitor, resulting in a so-so period drama that raises more questions than it answers."
