Leave your thoughts about Skin Trade.
| Blu-ray.comBrian Orndorf"Skin Trade" doesn't follow through on its potential for horror, quickly devolving into a roughhouse revenge picture that consumes cliché by the pound. |
| RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsThis movie's makers haven't met a formula cliché that they don't like. |
| Paste MagazineAndy CrumpIt's hard to tell if Skin Trade should be taken seriously. |
| Examiner.comChris SawinSkin Trade is worth seeing for Tony Jaa's triumphant return to the type of film that made him a household name, but this is otherwise a lackluster revenge thriller intertwined with a run of the mill human trafficking counterplot. |
| South China Morning PostRichard James HavisIt's nostalgic fun to watch genuine martial arts experts fighting each other on the screen. |
| Film School RejectsRob HunterOne area where the script unexpectedly shines is an ending which completes the story, respects the reality of loss and sets up a sequel I sincerely hope we get to see. |
| AV ClubIgnatiy VishnevetskyThese fight scenes—and the chases that often precede them—are neither ingenious nor novel, but they’re fun and cleanly shot; the fact that this can be considered a major virtue probably says more about the state of the big-budget action movie than about Skin Trade itself. |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumChris BumbrayNot a great showcase for Tony Jaa, but Dolph Lundgren makes Skin Trade worth watching for action fans. |
| The DissolveScott TobiasEveryone’s there to get the job done, Dolph Lundgren style, meaning Skin Trade is a throwback to the one-man-army actioners of the ’80s, sprinkled with updated stats on human trafficking. If the film happens to raise awareness, then that’s more bonus than objective. |
| VarietyNick SchagerSnapping necks and shooting limbs have rarely been carried out in service of such a principled cause — or been executed with such formulaic tedium. |
