BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
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.
ewpqtgmg Wanted to see this movie because I thought Bill Murray plays in it. It took me a while to understand that there's no Bill, but BILLY Murray. Oh, well... my first mistake. Continued watching it till the end, out of curiosity and because I had nothing else to do. My second BIG mistake. Just say no to this. Believe me when I tell you that there are better ways to spend one and a half hour of your life. You can watch paint dry, or something. (http://www.mirimgs.com/webcam/paint.html) You've been warned.(By the way, what does this mean: "Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text.

robcharman Whilst not a big budget production like TAKEN it is in the same genre and equally as tense and gripping. Danny Midwinter is superb and is certainly in the grass roots of the current British film industry pushing up beneath the likes of Liam Neeson.A star in the wings! The direction of Stuart St Paul shines the light, subtly onto all the right areas bringing the issues into sharp focus and daring you to forget what's going on in the real world once you step back into it. If a film engages it's done its job...if a film engages and entertains it's a bonus...if a film engages,entertains and sets you thinking...well that's Freight. You MUST see Freight. People trafficking is not pleasant but sometimes you need these experiences to give you a jolt!
Emulator29 Yes i'm french ...and Yes again i also love British Cinema. Hopefully unlike the Italian author cinema the British one is still Alive ! and brings to us from time to time a real jewel : Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch , Swallow Grave, Trainspotting, Revolver,This Is England, Four lions, all the Stanley Kubrick movies etc. Off course there's too many to mention all of them.So Far from me the will to light up an ancient rivalry or to start another 100 Years War :^)...but i am quit surprise to see that only British reviewer love that movie ( how can it be !).The only one that i agree with is a Russian cinephile. And if you ask me i can't understand how such a bad movie script, hawfully play by mediocre acting ( and directing i guess ) can be so much positively misjudge . As a Latin proverb says "love turns you blind !". Perhaps ..! Can't see another plausible explanation.Watching this movie so dull was a pain for the mind. Even the "action" sequence were boring. I better not say what i think in detail of the script ! Someone says it's a kind of British "Taken" , well to me "Taken" is at best an average action movie with a predictable story. "Freight" is a lot worse than that !. Spare your money guy , rent a video, DL a movie and choose a _real_ movie.
