Review of Contraband (2012) by Adrian Z — 02 Jun 2012

From the very beginning to the dramatic end, the movie is thrilling. There is not a scene in the movie which drags the story and every bit exciting. His acting is simple, on point and brilliant as usual and this is one of the best smuggling films I've seen after Italian Job and various others.

Mark Wahlberg gives a really good performance and Giovanni Ribisi did a really great job as the film's over-the-top villain. The film does a great job of getting down the gritty tone and gives the film a realistic feel to it.

I also enjoyed how instead of being a straight out action flick, the film actually took time to develop what they had with the plot and show the whole set up of the heist. Overall I would highly recommend it to someone who is looking for a good rental or download.
