Product Description

Product Description

Mark Wahlberg stars as legendary smuggler Chris Farraday, who has left his criminal past behind to be with his wife (Kate Beckinsale) and sons. When a ruthless drug kingpin (Giovanni Ribisi) threatens his family, Farraday must summon his old skills and contacts for one last run. Contraband takes you to the cutthroat underground world of international smuggling, and on a thrilling adventure that critics are calling "dynamic, intense and gritty!" –Mark S. Allen, CBS/CW-TV (Sacramento)

This job should be a piece of cake: former smuggler Chris Farraday (Mark Wahlberg) gets dragged back into the game in order to make things right with a nasty New Orleans gangster (Giovanni Ribisi) over a debt owed by Chris's brother-in-law. So, Chris needs to smuggle in some goods on a cargo ship from Panama, pay the guy off, and return to a suburban life on the straight and narrow. No problem, right? What's fun about Contraband is that despite its hero's meticulous planning, all hell breaks loose in Panama City, where nothing goes as planned and where the cargo ship is, after all, due to disembark at a certain time, with or without him. Based on the Icelandic film Reykjavík-Rotterdam, this movie is full of stock characters and rancid dialogue, but the plot is so kicky and wild, it almost doesn't matter, at least for as long as the movie is on screen. Director Baltasar Kormákur (he produced the original film and directed the entertaining 101 Reykjavík) pumps up the action nicely, although the actors are on their own: Wahlberg contributes his customary solid center, which a movie like this needs, but Kate Beckinsale has nothing to do as his wife, and Ribisi and Ben Foster emote with reckless abandon. No one will mistake it for a classic, but Contraband has enough zip, and a few genuine surprises, to qualify it as a fun diversion. --Robert Horton

    Why do things always go south when you're forced to do something? Will he get caught? Who is stabbing him in the back and will he find out in time?
    A typical plot but very well done.

    Download it. Buy it. Just get it. This is Taken on steroids. Here's the thang. 1. Mark Wahlberg's character loves his wife and children. And, by extension, he loves her family and will do anything to protect them. 2. I love his I'm bad (in the best way) and I know it, don't mess with my family or else, old-school character and portrayal. Shout out to Mr. Wahlberg and the writers. 3. There's not one moment that won't keep your attention centered on the physical, psychological, emotional charges of this film. 4. If you've ever, ever chosen to do something because you were trying to save someone you love from reaping the negative consequences of their dumber than dumb decision, or if you've ever seen someone else you know who's done it, you'll get this film. 5. I love loyalty. And family loyalty is a beautiful thing -- sometimes had to live with, but at it's core -- beautiful. ALL these things and more are in the film. All the actors rock. You forget they're acting. They become the part. They are their characters.

    I like the action and violence. I like the shooting. I like the punching and kicking.
    I like the fast car action. I like the story. I like the big ship and the helicopters.
    Very complicated so I enjoyed trying to keep up with the story.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, worth a rental
    Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    To echo the words of another reviewer, if you are a Wahlberg fan and enjoy the heist genre, this movie is passably viewable. I might be a bit more critical if I had shelled out some serious coin and watched this in the theater, but as a rental I don't regret the $4.99. Wahlberg is his usual frowny, muscley self, not much change here- but this is how I like my Wahlberg, full of quiet angst and muted emotions (sans rage of course). Beckinsale's performance was pretty vanilla, enough so that I forgot that it was her until I came back to write this.

    In sum, it is worth a rental if you like this kind of genre.

    Contraband è un film del 2012, diretto da Baltasar Kormákur e con protagonisti Mark Wahlberg e Kate Beckinsale.
    Chris Farraday è un ex marinaio che è stato licenziato dalla nave su cui lavorava a causa della sua abitudine a contrabbandare merci rubate a New Orleans. Nonostante negli anni sia riuscito a costruirsi una vita onesta è costretto a tornare nel mondo nella criminalità per proteggere la moglie, i due figli e il cognato dopo che quest'ultimo per evitare di essere arrestato ha buttato in mare preziosa merce illegale.
    Che dire, ovviamente le cose vanno di male in peggio e non mancano colpi di scena, il film è davvero bello !! mai noioso, lo consiglio a tutti gli amanti del genere
    Al video do 8,5 sempre nitido, pochissima grana,ottimi neri, solo qualche scena poteva essere piu' a fuoco
    Audio 8 un semplice dolby DTS 5.1
    al film do un bel 8,5 se siete amanti del genere prendetelo, il cast è ottimo !!ne consiglio l' acquisto

    This impressed me a lot,enough action to keep the interest,great storyline and top acting.
    This family man,leaving his criminal past behind is forced back into it when his brother in-law bothces a deal.
    Things get heavy very soon and he realizes he has to get togeher a gang he can trust to help pull off one major job.
    There's a quite a bit of backstabbing as the film goes one and you are left wondering just who can be trusted and who's in on what.
    Okay,it's over the top,but it's done in impressive style. Maybe it's not the most original,but it's great entertainment,leaving me satisfied.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Spannender Actionthriller mit Wahlberg als Schmuggler
    Reviewed in Germany on September 23, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    Obwohl es sich bei Contraband um ein Remake handelt, könnte man den Film durchaus als eigenständigen Film betrachten, denn laut Regisseur Baltasar Kormákur basiert die Story zwar auf dem isländischen Reykjavik-Rotterdam, viele Handlungsstränge wurden jedoch komplett ausgetauscht. Ich kenne das Original nicht, kann daher keinen Vergleich ziehen und ausschließlich die amerikanische Schmuggelversion bewerten.

    Contraband war ein Blindkauf, den ich auf keinen Fall bereut habe. Wer auf spannende Actionthriller steht, sowie bisherige Streifen mit Mark Wahlberg genossen hat, kann hier getrost zugreifen und sich auf einen netten Filmabend freuen. Am Anfang glaubt man den Film schnell durchschaut zu haben, die Protagonisten werden vorgestellt und die Aufgabe von Wahlberg steht früh fest, was soll also in den restlichen 90 Minuten noch passieren dachte ich mir? Dank einigen Story-Twists baut sich rasch eine Spannungskurve auf, die bis zum Ende ansteigt. Einige Handlungen sind natürlich vorhersehbar, aber im Großen und Ganzen wurde ich wirklich gut unterhalten und immer wieder überrascht. Mark Wahlberg spielt die Rolle als Familienvater und Schmuggler wieder Willen sehr gut, auch Kate Beckinsale, Ben Foster und Bösewicht Giovanni Ribisi spielen ihre Rollen mit Hingabe.

    Neben den vielen Actionszenen kommt auch die Dramaturgie nicht zu kurz (schließlich muss Wahlberg seine Familie retten) und für ein paar Lacher zwischendurch ist auch gesorgt! Also alles enthalten was einen guten Film ausmacht. Natürlich ist die Schmuggel-Story nicht neu, dafür wurde aus dem Plot jedoch das Maximum rausgeholt und perfekt umgesetzt (auch Dank der Schauspieler), daher satte 4 Sterne für den Film!

    Zur Bild- und Tonqualität sei folgendes gesagt: Die Bildqualität an sich ist sehr gut und hat durchaus gewohntes HD-Niveau, vor allem in manchen Nahaufnahamen bemerkt man die Schärfe. Es wird jedoch in vielen (Action)Szenen mit der Kamera gespielt (wildes schwenken und zoomen) was mir persönlich gefällt, da es authentisch wirkt, andere hingegen mögen es nicht. Dunkle Szenen sind weniger detailreich, aber keineswegs schlecht, insgesamt ein gutes Bild und kein Anlass für Kritik. Die deutsche Tonspur liegt in DTS-HD 5.1 vor (englische Tonspur HD-Master Audio 5.1) und kann sich hören lassen, der Soundtrack untermauert die Atmosphäre in den Actionszenen, die Jazzeinlagen passen zu New Orleans, was will man mehr? (abgesehen von DTS HD MA 7.1, aber welcher Film hat das schon?)

    Den Sammlern unter uns kann ich auf jeden Fall das schöne Steelbook ans Herz legen, eingestanzter Contraband Schriftzug und abziehbarer FSK-Flatschen!

    Das Bonusmaterial der BluRay gestaltet sich wie folgt:

    - Audiokommentar mit Regisseur und Produzent
    - Der Faktor Realität: Stunts und Actionszenen in Contraband (8 Minuten Einblick in ein paar Szenen)
    - Unter dem Radar: Making of Contraband (sehenswerte 17 Minuten Making of)
    - Unveröffentlichte Szenen (12 Stück, in Summe 6 Minuten aber nicht wirklich sehenswert und zu Recht nicht im Film enthalten)

    Neben der regulären BluRay ist noch eine DVD mit der Digial Copy enthalten (und ein entsprechender Code für iTunes etc.)
