In this intense found footage action film, two army rangers set out to create a workout video, but their plans are abruptly halted when a mob hit interrupts their filming. Tragically, one of the rangers loses his wife in the attack, sending him on a relentless mission to take down the mob and anyone who stands in his way.

Lyles' Movie Files

Has all the ingredients needed for a basic, run of the mill action film that would be fine way to spend 90+ minutes. Its gimmick approach that’s mired with inconsistencies makes it tough to recommend this workout plan.

Rated: 4.5/10

The Workout won't go down in history for its ingenuity, but it will be remembered for its unique use of filmmaking as a vehicle for revenge and, why not, for the redemption of its protagonist. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 6/10

Film Focus Online

If you prefer your action polished and easy to follow, this scrappy, handheld experiment might frustrate you. But for fans of raw revenge cinema, and for those intrigued by the collision of found footage and action, it’s a refreshing jolt of energy.

Rated: 3/5

Overall, The Workout tells an emotionally dramatic story through some (mostly) brutal and high-energy action sequences.
