Critics Consensus

Taron Egerton and an against-type Jason Bateman make for great adversaries in Carry-On, a throwback thriller that clears all checkpoints of plot logic with its confident execution.

Peter Rainer FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A real guilty pleasure. Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Adam Graham Detroit News "Carry-On" is an action movie that is definitely a Christmas movie, no ifs, ands or buts about it. Rated: B Jan 13, 2025 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) ... A filling chunk of crude entertainment – as carb-rich and greens-free as the baked potato you’ll probably eat with it. Rated: 3/5 Jan 8, 2025 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots Anybody comparing this lazy junk to “Die Hard” is either living in an alternate universe or needs a couple of semesters of film school. Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Pablo O. Scholz Clarín ...Jaume Collet-Serra...draws more on the action thrillers of the glorious '80s and much of the '90s. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/4 Feb 1, 2025 Full Review Pedro Gallego Espinof Carry-On brings us back to a gritty and direct thriller professional that is more than entertaining, giving us a show that is free of complexities and mindlessness in just the right measure.

William P I figure the people who wrote and directed this film have lived in the actual world, have you used an airport, had a job, and understand how things work. That's what makes all the absurdities and inconsistencies in this film seem ridiculous. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/25 Full Review Anshuman P Good for a one time watch. Predictable plot and ending was kinda Meh! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Leeann R Shitty. Rambling never ending waste of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Aaron C It’s like they lived in a world where nobody had a brain. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Audience Member This movie was brilliant good it wasn't a masterpiece but damn did I love it. I haven't seen Jason Bateman in a movie for a long time. We are never getting a new kingsman movie so when I saw the actor who plays eggsy I was so devoted and locked in. This movie had me at suspense through the whole film. Yea sure u can see majority of everything coming but this movie had me focused and enjoying from start to finish. Highly recommend giving this a watch Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/25 Full Review Aaron U The movie starts with an interesting premise, that of being blackmailed to do something, but it quickly becomes absurd because the bad guys have pretty much unlimited resources that makes the entire plot nonsensical. No need to get something through a bomb detector when you have key cards and could smuggle the bomb into the secure part of the airport or into the plane. The ending also goes on way too long and becomes more and more ridiculous. Once again, Netflix and Amazon are piling too much money into bad scripts. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
