eye Weekly
Neil Karassik quote iconThe title does not mislead: Takers takes blatantly, from every action flick, rap video and men’s magazine advertisement from the past 20 years.

T. Durgin quote iconDespite its reliance on clichés and character types, there is enough good stuff in the film.

Tomatometer quote iconTakers boasts some gripping set pieces and keeps things moving quickly, but its two-dimensional characters, clichéd script, and brazenly derivative plot make it hard to recommend.
