In New Orleans, the former smuggler Chris Faraday has regenerated and raised a family of his own with his wife Kate and their two children. Chris works in installation of alarms and his father is locked in prison for smuggling. When his brother-in-law Andy dumps in the sea water 10 pounds of cocaine that he is smuggling for the drug lord Tim Briggs to escape from the custom officers, Chris is forced to pay Andy's debts to protect the youngster and his own family. Chris leaves his wife and children under the protection of his best friend Sebastian Abney and travels in a Container Carrier to Panama to bring counterfeit bills and raise the money to pay Briggs. But Briggs and his partner want to force Chris to smuggle drugs and will use his family to reach their objective. Meanwhile Chris is betrayed and gets in trouble in Panama.
To protect his brother-in-law from a drug lord, a former smuggler heads to Panama to score millions of dollars in counterfeit bills.
Yes, Contraband is just another "check-your-brain-at-the-door" action film, but why can't it still be believable? Much of the suspense and adventure feels created just for the sake of escalation and adds nothing to the plot, the characters, or the intensity. Plan A doesn't work so our protagonists must move on to a more difficult Plan B. Plan B gets compromised so they must rely on a quickly improvised and even more risky Plan C. An almost impossible Plan D arrives when predictable plot twists occur and the cycle continues. Yet somehow Plans A, B, C, and D all manage to work out in the end and everything is wrapped up neatly in a nice little anticlimactic bow. The excitement may be there at times, but skimped character development and a camera that just won't settle down only result in indifference towards those we're badgered into rooting for. When his brother-in-law gets caught up with a dangerous drug dealer (Giovanni Ribisi), former professional smuggler Chris Farraday (Mark Wahlberg) is left with few options. To protect his family he must carry out one last score and heads to Panama to smuggle a fortune in counterfeit bills. As time rapidly runs out, Chris must contend with crooked officials, vicious gangsters, and disastrous betrayals all while staying one step ahead of those attempting to thwart his desperate mission. The premise is deceptively generic, launching at maximum speed into the overly familiar notion of a dark past that won't let the protagonist go. The setup is so quick (approximately five minutes) that character development is left to a handful of words and hasty visuals. All anyone needs to know about Farraday is that he has a wife and two kids – he's a good guy simply for having this arrangement. His gone-straight day job is so seemingly trivial that it's introduced after Chris already knows he must return to his life of crime to right the wrongs of his inherited family. And all anyone needs to know about Kate Beckinsale is that she's greatly unconvincing when not surrounded by vampires and werewolves. "It's not going away, Chris." "Do what you gotta do." "Trust me." "I know what I'm doing." "Nothing's gonna happen." These glaringly nonexclusive lines of dialogue frequent Contraband mercilessly, causing this January release (the first sign of its mediocre entertainment value) to be of the most forgettable variety. Putting this lack of creative lingo aside, the hierarchy of villains presents at least a marginal element of spontaneity, wasting not a single appearance by passing acquaintances. The introduction, or rather clarification, of villainy aids the increasingly southerly course of blunders, but the action is based more on accidents than heroics. Contraband rarely delivers on adventure so much as mild thrills from law-breaking exploits. The most unforgivable misstep, however, is the flagrant curtailment of revenge – there's just no payback. For an R-rated movie with multiple antagonists each so vile they demand embellished demises (think James Bond theatrics), Contraband brings nothing but police sirens and handcuffs. How disappointingly spineless. <ul><li>The Massie Twins (GoneWithTheTwins.com)</li></ul>
The next movie I'm reviewing is the movie "Contraband," starring Mark Wahlberg, Giovanni Ribisi, and Kate Beckinsale. I had two thoughts about this movie when I first seen it. I thought that, it could be a good movie or be one of those movies were your like: "I've seen this before and I know what's going to happen." This movie is about a man that has his family threatened and he's doing what ever it takes to make things right even if he has to go back to his old ways! Honestly, this is a good movie. I would definitely say this is worth seeing in the movie theaters. I enjoyed this movie. The movie to me felt real. I say real in the since that I could see this happening. Nothing in this movie feels far fetched and I like that. I think that is what gives this movie its breathe fresh air. I feel as though Mark Wahlberg and Giovanni Ribisi do a great job on the acting tip. Giovanni Ribisi is a actor that I would like to see in more movies. In any movie that I've seen him in, he really makes me feel his character. In this movie he plays a ruthless character. There's certain parts in the movie were he's kind of just sitting there staring at whatever and he just sells you on the ruthlessness his character is suppose to provide for the audience. He does a great job. I give this movie the rating of 8 out of 10. If you have a couple extra dollars on you and you want to see a movie. You have my permission to spend your money on this movie.
Contraband is based on an Icelandic thriller named "Reykjavik-Rotterdam," which leads you to suspect that neither New Orleans nor Panama City is particularly essential to the plot. That film starred Baltasar Kormakur, who is the director of this one, perhaps as a demonstration that many stars believe they could direct this crap themselves if they ever had the chance.
When Giovanni Ribisi first auditioned for Contraband, it was for a different part. The director, Kormákur, suggested he read for Tim Briggs, the local thug who terrorizes the Farraday family. Kormákur says he was originally looking for the tough guy, but he felt that Ribisi brought something unexpected and more dangerous than a typical bully would. a5c7b9f00b
