Contraband (2012)
4/10
Disappointing, slow and sometimes boring
18 January 2012
Contraband is a mediocre movie that fails to live up to what is presented in the trailers and in the movie's premise. Definitely not one of Mark Wahlbergs's best films by a long shot. The story was not interesting, the action scenes dull and the acting was sub-par.

I never really cared about any of the characters. I can't think of one performance that stood out as being good. Not sure if it was a bad script or just bad acting.

The pace of the movie was really slow. I kept waiting for it move faster, but never did.

I liked Wahlberg in "The Italian Job', but Contraband has a much weaker supporting cast and a poorer storyline.

There are better heist, action movies to see than this one.
