Takers Ratings & Reviews
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Check out Takers for end of the summer fun. Leave your brain at home.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
A mini-Michael Mann effort populated by one-dimensional clichs.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Laughable subplots about Elba's addicted sister (Marianne Jean-Baptiste) and Dillon's crooked partner (Jay Hernandez) only slow the action, which is all this movie has going for it.
Austin Chronicle
It runs the stopwatch on a chase sequence to a comical extreme and takes way, way too long to take its final bow, in the process burning off any residual good will.
Movie Retriever
Brian Tallerico
An above-average heist thriller that's undone by poor screenwriting and worse post-production.
NPR
Ian Buckwalter
With no emotional heft to the performances, it's hard to care whether anyone's dreams are dashed or fulfilled. That leaves the heist itself to compensate, but it only digs deeper into tired action movie cliches.
Movieline
Stephanie Zacharek
Takers is a sterling example of how a movie can take a basic, appealing idea and turn it into something that you could easily watch while brushing your teeth, clipping your toenails, plucking your eyebrows.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Someone has to say it, so I will: Shaky cam is out of control.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Takers is a slick heist film, but that's all it is.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
I guess the easy place to start here is to call Takers the most derivative and obvious thriller to not go directly to DVD in over a decade.
HitFix
Alonso Duralde
Heist movies don't have to include deep characters as long as we understand the function of each team member (The Planner, The Demolitions Expert, et.al.), but all we get from this bunch is That Guy, That Other Guy, and The One with the Hat.
Movies.com
Jen Yamato
A slick thriller comprised of equal parts pretty actors, urban crime drama clichs, and cheesy lines... The Italian Heat Job for Dummies.
Entertainment Weekly
Adam Markovitz
At least they do look sharp in those suits.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Conceived and executed with just enough skill and flair to make you wish it were better.
Washington Post
John Anderson
Luessenhop and his antic camera are after a kineticism that eludes them: He shoots too closely; he's practically crawling up his characters' nostrils with his unhinged camera.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
A Michael Mann-ish heist thriller with a pulse-pounding foot chase and some terrific stunt work offsetting its hackneyed plot and dialogue.
Slant Magazine
Paul Schrodt
Remember when Paul Walker had a career, Matt Dillon had indie credibility, Jay Hernandez was just a cute face, and Chris Brown was an R&B singer without a rap sheet?
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Amidst the gangsta posing and some overly operatic shootouts, [Dillon] helps give Takers some crucial currency.
Beliefnet
Nell Minow
Rap star T.I. and R&B star Chris Brown have produced the movie they thought would be fun to star in rather than the movie that would be fun to watch.
