3/5
Exciting heist film for teens and their families. Go to Full Review Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader 05/06/2008
This one offers some agreeably mindless fun in which the villains (including Norton) are truly villainous, the payback is satisfying in a purely infantile way, and the familiarity of everything is oddly comforting. Go to Full Review Derek Adams Time Out 02/09/2006
Itresembles a film made up on the fly. The cast, too, are strictly cut from comic books. Don't expect any unconventional endings either. Go to Full Review James Croot The Post NZ 10/07/2022
2.5/5
The support cast isn't much better. Jason Statham just repeats his Transporter role, while the permanently grumpy Norton has made it clear his participation was a result of contractual obligation... Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 07/02/2020

...a seriously lazy would-be blockbuster that's nevertheless affable and breezy enough to warrant a mild recommendation. Go to Full Review Michael Dequina TheMovieReport.com 01/09/2010

Thyaagu C @Thyaagu Feb 27 When the cunning one sparks your rage, and the sweet revenge satisfies you enough - the movie wins big there! Nothing more required. See more Samuel C @RannyManny Dec 18 Not even remotely good compared to the original, frankly its such a shame that they took such an iconic name and ruined it with crappy modern writing. See more Laurie S @Karlwinters Nov 15 Not nearly as good as the original but it's too bad. See more kira K @RT19224656 Nov 8 Awful. It's aged terribly. The Jokes are all so sloppy and cringe, none of them hit. How pervy it is about women who aren't doing anything but they're job is creepy and in poor taste. See more Darcy J @Darcidious Nov 8 THIS IS A GREAT HEIST MOVIE. if you dont like heists, dont watch it i guess. See more Tauhid E @RT41621543 Oct 24 guys always talkin' about sex is just tired trope and the edward as the villain is the most unintimidating character ever. See more Read all reviews
