Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Jay Stone (286) for Canada.com (402) on 25 Apr 2013

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Katey Rich (412) for CinemaBlend.com (1,378) on 25 Apr 2013

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Thegodfatherson (586) on 25 Apr 2013

Pain and Gain is simply one of the best Micheal Bay films I have ever seen, the story is about Daniel Lugo a hotrod steroid muscleman who wants…

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Ben Kendrick (300) for ScreenRant (1,013) on 25 Apr 2013

Pain & Gain isn't a bad movie but it is a flat adaptation - only telling the story of the Sun Gym Gang without adding worthwhile insight (or…

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Tom Charity (192) for CNN.com (607) on 25 Apr 2013

This crude and ugly entertainment is as crass as everything this depressingly successful filmmaker has done…

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Leonard Maltin (609) for leonardmaltin.com (584) on 25 Apr 2013

By Jim Judy (1,199) for Screen It! (1,437) on 25 Apr 2013

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Greg Evans (65) for Bloomberg News (117) on 25 Apr 2013

By Mike Scott (1,178) for Times-Picayune (642) on 25 Apr 2013

Review of Pain & Gain (2013)

By Matthew Razak (302) for Flixist.com (210) on 25 Apr 2013
