Freight Audience Reviews

Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Zeech ANOTHER MORAL HOLIDAY from the small island desperate to reinvent itself and it's Film IndustryWack wack WACK! British gangsta movie. It's pathetic not just because of the 'plot', the 'action' (neanderthal grunts of men 'fighting'), or the ugly cast (where the hell they get these ugly, ugly people from?) but the racial politics are disgusting… like really disgusting, enough to make one think this is an MI7 funded bout of psychological warfare.The hubby to be is Asian and get this, the Black guy in this psychological propaganda turkey is saved by the English noble gangstas from the evil East European thugs. This turkey of a film can only be of use for Cultural Studies and Guerellla Intellectuals to watch and dissect. It's pathetic to see how that dreary drizzle island that invented racism (as Bro Jessie Jackson said) reinvents itself and casts its 400 years of sin onto East Europeans. It's the East Europeans who abuse for the buck ( yea right, not the 400 years of that Welfar Queen's plantation history). Where where oh where were are the films about that era of enslavement, enslavement and neocolonialism? oh yea, made in the US. You want gangsta go to older films this turkey hasn't learned from made in the US, You want Trafficking films ? do the same.And yea, I was born and seasoned in South London and left for the USA, not just for the great gangsta movies they make with the great sound tracks.
leonblackwood Review: This is your typical English action movie about Romanian illegal trafficking and prostitution. There isn't anything amazing about this film and the acting is pretty average. The storyline wasn't as bad as a lot of the English gangster movies out there, but it was quite predictable and not really thought out in parts. The action was OK and it wasn't full of swearing and sex like a lot of movies in this genre. In all, this movie is what I expected.Round-Up: I don't mind Billy Murray as an actor, but he just seems to get type casted like Craig Fairbrass who always acts the same. This movie did come out a couple of years ago so it must have fit in with all of the other British gangster movies that came out. It does seem like the whole Eastern European trafficking and prostitution thing has got way out of hand because its in every other movie nowadays. It used to be the Russians that always got used as the baddies but now they have switched sides. Budget: $2.5million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who like there British crime/thrillers about people trafficking. 2/10
Michael Burrows Now I love a proper good Brit gangster flick, and the story sounded promising, the cast looked promising and the film started reasonably well. However it all quickly fell apart the acting for the most part was terrible, the direction was poor and the violence and action scenes were laughable. It was hard to connect with any of the characters that we were supposed to as they were so cardboard and the bad guys, tilt head back look down nose and spit a lot whilst talking in a comparethemeerkat.com accent does not a convincing bad guy make. Thankfully the film wasn't that long otherwise I would have turned it off, it was like watching an expensively made college project where a couple of name actors had donated their services.
asdfen-1 The foremost question I ask myself after I am done watching movie is - was I entertained? Regarding the movie Freight the answer is no.The action and effects were sub par, the plot was non existent save damsel in distress sort of gibberish. None of the actors stood out enough to save me from severe boredom.Basically nothing stood out in this film. The drama did not appeal to my good nature. I was not moved by tears of Russian/Romanian prostitutes and their unfortunate husbands. The action scenes seems like something from days long gone without flash grandeur or anything remotely memorable. The plot - was focused on something I know I have seen thousand times before more specifically illegal aliens problem. I guess US has Mexicans and Cubans and this movie tries to show that UK's problem with influx of cheap prostitutes from Eastern Europe is no less of a problem.I would not recommend this movie to anyone other than British nationals to whom this movie may appeal as there is an happy end!
