Contraband could have been a good movie but the story is so bad you spend most of the movie groaning. Mark Wallenburg is a crook who has gone straight. Unfortunately, his young brother in law followed in his footstep and ran afoul of the local psychopath. This is where the story goes very wrong. In order to set things right Wallenburg's character tells the psychopath that he will become a crook again and bring him millions of dollars in ill gotten gains and things well be square. Even though the psycho doesn't agree to these terms, Wallenburg leaves his family hostage while he goes away to get the money....what? Does this sound like a good plan to you? Well that's how this whole movie is written. One bad idea after another ensues until it's wrapped up nicely at the end with many needless deaths of innocent people.
