Review For Contraband |
Mark Wahlberg delivers the goods in Contraband, a B-movie about smuggling in boozy, corrupt New Orleans. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service
A winter-season product, but perfectly absorbing once it gets going. David Denby-New Yorker
It's a good, chugging caper movie for the most part. Glenn Kenny-MSN Movies
Wahlberg could sleepwalk through this role, and does. See this movie and you'll surely follow his lead. Peter Travers-Rolling Stone
"Contraband" comes off the factory floor with its engine running and ready to drive. But the ride feels overly familiar. Tom Long-Detroit News
Frankly, Wahlberg has outgrown movies like this. And so have we. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
Contraband is a gritty, curse-filled heist film that wastes more time on cliches than trying to keep you focused on the task at hand. Jeremy Lebens-We Got This Covered
We are left to ponder why Andy is any less culpable or any more worth saving than anyone else. Kenneth R. Morefield-Christianity Today
It may not exactly be an original story, but when a little effort is put into a film like this, it can be done pretty well. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
Contraband is a decent action film but none of the cast can do anything to elevate the material beyond what it is: a January movie from top to bottom. Benjo Colautti-We Got This Covered
The Mark Wahlberg of movies. Matt Looker-TheShiznit.co.uk
Plays like conventional Hollywood genre entertainment even though all the actual events in movie feel like they belong in a Michael Mann joint. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline
With its dim lighting and handheld camerawork, the director's 'realistic' visual approach is arguably bogus, but it pays dividends as the narrative becomes increasingly grim. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
Wahlberg delivers in this sometimes tense, enjoyable, but morally muddy heist thriller. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD
Mark Wahlberg plays another working class action hero in this gritty but convoluted story about double-dealing smugglers, wharfside corruption and family revenge. Simon Weaving-Screenwize
A-Team rules apply: this is a gore-free zone that, in common with ye Lethal Weapon movies of yore, yokes family values to gunplay. Tara Brady-Irish Times
Ends up just another dumber than average caper. Alistair Harkness-Scotsman
Sound familiar? Of course it does, and not just because it's a remake of the 2008 film Reykjavik-Rotterdam. Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman
Conventional, fairly exciting stuff, its most distinctive feature perhaps is the realistic, atmospheric photography by Ken Loach's regular collaborator, Barry Ackroyd. Philip French-Observer [UK]
A typical Hollywood excuse for stringing together violent action sequences which are individually exciting enough but collectively unable to sustain any palpable tension. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
How this confused and mediocre heist-cum-action movie reached - albeit briefly - the top spot in the US box-office ratings passes all understanding. -This is London
Ultimately, it's not going to win any awards for originality but this is an entertaining crime thriller nonetheless. Alex Zane-Sun Online
Gritty, slick and maybe a bit too serious, Contraband may be predictable, but it is solid action entertainment. Mark Adams-Daily Mirror [UK]
It's a thriller in which the twists become so absurd that it becomes a kind of caper, but without the humour. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
