    We saw this particular flick planning on it to be boring, it was far from boring. We enjoyed just about every minute of it and would suggest it to our close friends. You will probably become gripped with the wonderful acting and excellent plot. You will love Contraband!

    I thought that I would like this movie but I in fact loved it. I thought the characters were well created and had depth. They were people today that would exist in real life, not just inside the films. I thought the primary character was portrayed seriously well and also the director chose a very good actor. I also liked the plot. The movie was under no circumstances boring and also the ending was completely unexpected. I strategy on watching this movie once again!
