The Take Reviews
New York Times
Rachel Saltz
Mr. Furman, who also directs music videos, has given the movie, shot by Lukas Ettlin, a bleached-out, unglossy look. Occasionally the visuals seem overly stylized, but Mr. Furman knows enough to showcase his stars' unvarnished performances.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Perez and Leguizamo make an entirely believable couple, and director Brad Furman creates an intense undercurrent of intimacy between the audience and his haunted hero.
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
Indie director Brad Furman has unleashed a powerful low budget thriller that makes good use of the talents of John Leguizamo as well as those of supporting performers Tyrese Gibson and Rosie Perez.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
John Leguizamo knocks it out of the park as an armored car driver in The Take, which is quite a bit better than you'd expect from a low-budget thriller that's getting a token theatrical release a month ahead of its DVD debut.
TheDivaReview.com
Diva Velez
Abundantly gritty and atmospheric, The Take is marked with many of the errors of a first feature, and succeeds almost entirely through exceptional performances by stars John Leguizamo and Rosie Perez.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...wildly uneven...
Cinematical
Scott Weinberg
If you usually dig John Leguizamo's work, then you'll definitely want to see this one.
Variety
John Anderson
Production values are tops, and Lukas Ettlin's athletic camerawork -- coursing through the streets of Boyle Heights and other Los Angeles locations -- adds a kinetic element to a film that is half thriller, half psychodrama.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Short on sensational elements but involving, it won't set multiplexes on fire but should make a decent showing thanks to cast and plot.
NewsBlaze
Prairie Miller
Funny man John Leguizamo gets in touch with his furious and fiery side in The Take, and that transitional extreme mood swing is surprisingly impressive.
L.A. Weekly
Chuck Wilson
Furman stages the final foot chase with brio, but one wishes that he'd found a way to stay at home with Felix and Marina, who don't need guns to thrill.
