Carjackers

I went into Carjackers (2025) excited by the concept - hotel staff leading double lives as car thieves targeting the rich. Sounds awesome, right? Unfortunately, the execution falls flat.

The pacing at the beginning is painfully slow, and the film doesn't give you enough time to understand or connect with the characters. Then out of nowhere, everyone starts dying one after another with barely any build-up or explanation. It felt rushed and unearned.

The final chase scene was short and lacked any real tension. It almost seemed like the film just wanted to end, rather than give us a strong, satisfying conclusion.

The acting was decent, but the story and direction didn't live up to the potential. Honestly, it's hard to recommend this to anyone looking for a smart heist or action film.

If you need something to happen on your tv-set while you're hangover and don't want a plot more advanced than any low budget comics - this is it!

Action: yes. Good action: no.

I would sincerely recommend this movie for.. hmm You, the drunk guy not wanting to think or be interested while you're looking at some cheap action. Or maybe you: the guy that thinks that the world is missing out on cheap 80's action shows where the "hero" wins over all odds.

Or rather : I would not recommend this movie to anyone....

Well, maybe I am too harsh. There _are_ several shoot-outs and the hero's gang doesn't always win. Even som 'touching moments' of you are used to watching the Disney channel. Maybe you would like this movie as well?

The way was mainly opened with BALLE PERDUE films series - which is not finished - and resumed with GTMAX, TIGRES ET HYENES, and some Olivier Marchal's films now "forbidden" in movie theaters. Not unbearable films, far from that, but with always some light touches that have nothing to do in those gritty plots. I mean SUPPOSED to be gritty plots. The most interesting thing here is Frank Gastambide's character as some kind of villain, very unusual for him. He is not a gangster, not a cop, just some kind of mercenary working for the palaces and tracking down punks. As in some crime movies where robbers pull a heist against a mafia casino and are hunted my mafia goons. I love this Gastambide's role, but I really disllike the romance element here, between Olivier Marchal's daughter - Zoé and the young father with his daughter. It has nothing to do here, and the kids scenes really annoyed me. Back to Frank Gastambide, he should play in a further Olivier Marchal's film. The acting here is superb, even for supporting roles. But it could not have been grittier. It is tough, with good surprises. There was another thing that annoyed me, pulling a heist, armed robbery, without gloves.... They touch several things, cars, briefcases; what about finger prints? Screenwriters should be more careful to such details.

Horrible script, Horrible execution on a lost and twisting plot. If it wasn't for youtube I would not have been able to finish this movie.

It reminds me of a cheap knockoff. I was like watching Fast and Furious but without the suspense.

Action scenes could not separate a realistic feel from the car chase to the shootouts. Again credit for trying, but this is just garbage.

"I thought you seemed happy with him girl" She only just met the dude. Unless several months have passed and they went on more than one date. Once again horrible script.

I need a minimum of 28 more characters. Looks like i go them.

Fantastic euro action movieI had low expectations, especially compared to Netflix,s Lost Bullet movies with Alban Lenoir and GTMAX however, I am a massive fan of this new euro action movie trend on streaming and Carjackers is a one of the great movies from that genre.

Great character development and some nice hardcore action scenes what else to ask for! If action movie fans want to be entertained with some great action scenes, this movie is it!! From start to finish this movie will entertain streaming audiences. Why the low rating! Just enjoy a good low budget euro action movie with some twists and turns along the way. It,s a great action movie.
