Marauders (2016)

My idea of a top thriller is 'The Next three Days, 2010', just to be clear. Or 'Deja vu, 2006'. Something with a catching plot and (possibly) a girl to get.

The present title isn't as good as those. If they were a 10 this is a 7, however: no less. The plot may be convoluted (I read other reviews' titles) and in this case it would take a convoluted mind to appreciate it (which is something that I might have).

In any case Special Agent Montgomery (Christopher Meloni's character) is great and his partner (Dave Bautista) has his great moment when he asks him 'You're not gonna kiss me, are you?'.

I found it standing out from many other thrillers I watched this year and I think that many people could like it.

Fmovies: Why the low score? Vastly underrated on all accounts.

A fast pace with intelligent discourse and low key excellent acting, intriguingly complex characters and a plot than unravels perhaps too close for some peoples comfort.

Anyone with a genuine interest of well produced, clever, politically inclined police-thrillers and a generally solid judgment would rate this film significantly higher than its current received score.

The word "conspiracy" even mentioned in the real world triggers emotional fears and cognitive programming enough to blocks people from logic and from following genuine evidence. Perhaps films that picture the conspiracies in a realistic way run the risk of revealing reality without its mask of sanity?

Watch and enjoy!

...don't understand where all the hate is coming from for this movie. you want to watch a bad and stupid action heist movie?...then watch "heist". "heist got almost a full star higher rating here on IMDb and i couldn't even finish it...it was that bad. ...i'm a fan of good movies...i watch independents and art-house movies more then the blockbusters. pus i've watched most of the black and white classics. i'm just a fan of good movies.

that's why i can't understand the hate from the reviewers here and thats why i voted it a 7 out of 10. it's more like a 6.5 tho.

this movie could've been great tho...instead of just very good...but all in all it had me riveted to the screen for its duration. my only gripe was the movie should've been over 2 hours so the nitpickers will shut up about how convoluted and not well told it was. movies require you to use your brain sometimes...this was one of them.

all in all a very good watch if you are an action movie fan and just a enjoyable watch. another big bonus for me which others didn't like as much...the constant rain in the movie. it rained thru-out the whole movie just about...yayyyy.

solid solid action thriller revenge style flick...an atrocity that this movie gets a rating of 5.4 here on IMDb while clunkers like "heist" gets a much higher rating.

Marauders fmovies. A good action movie, sure the acting could have been better, but what it lacks in acting drama, it compensate with good action.

Christopher Meloni dominates the role, and Dave Bautista adds that humor to the whole film.

the story-line was intriguing, something you couldn't see from a mile away.

the action scene were well choreographed, the bank robber had a great appeal to them.

the movie had a sense of direction which is brilliant.

All in All, an action movie lover's treat!

You know a movie is bad when you can't even remember the title when it's over. This is one of those films. There is really good acting but the story is confusing and hard to follow. It's a shame, because there are really good attempts at character-building, but for some reason I don't care about these characters at all. Perhaps the problem is a little too much character-building across too many characters. And not enough story. Anyway, the end of the movie feels like a relief that the movie is finally over.

I was a little nervous going into this movie after reading all the reviews (largely negative), but was pleasantly surprised. OK, there was some bad acting on Bruce Willis' part but other members of the cast; Christopher Meloni, Dave Bautista et al made up for it. It was a great story with a good twist at the end. If you're a movie "sommelier" analyzing films for cinematography, acting etc... then you'll walk away with your nose in the air but if, like most people, you don't really care about the legs or the bouquet of your wine, you'll enjoy watching this. I don't normally bother writing reviews for movies but felt this movie was unfairly reviewed.
