Leave your thoughts about Marauders.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperIt’s pulp, but it has real actors doing real acting in a gritty story — which is a lot more than can be said for some of the much more high-profile buddy cop movies of the last couple of years. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfIt's tough for anything of note to happen in the movie when every character is dedicated to explaining everything on screen. And yet, somehow, nothing is clear or, in the end, all that interesting. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzA muddled VOD mediocre bank-robbery thriller that never adds up even when everything is tallied at the end and all the pieces fall into place. |
| AV ClubAlex McLevyWhat makes it watchable despite all the narrative hemming and hawing are the robberies themselves, which are vital and potent thanks to some inventive choices in execution. |
| The A.V. ClubAlex McCownMarauders is like a sophomoric college essay: It’s full of interesting ideas that get bungled in the execution. |
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayAn otherwise plain action picture carried by strong performances and a mildly compelling mystery. |
| VarietyOwen GleibermanIt's a bank-robbery thriller and a "political" exposé all at once: No wonder this overly elaborate potboiler turns into a muddle. |
| Movie TalkJason BestWillis is going through the motions, but Christopher Meloni delivers a far more committed performance as the determined FBI agent investigating the case. |
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyMarauders lays out a scenario in the first 40 minutes or so that, oddly enough, makes you think “this is not an entirely uninteresting premise for a thriller.” But after that, things devolve into “this is extremely far-fetched” and, finally, “this is goofy.” |
| Under the RadarZach HollwedelThere is just too much -- too many characters, conniving, and convolution -- to keep track of, and in the end, so little of it really seems to matter. |
