    Great movie

    by vane0111

    I thought it was going to be all action & while it has a good amount of it, the storyline is as important as the action in this movie. It doesn't hurt that the Rock, Dwayne Johnson, is in it :)

    so-so snitch

    by rlucas73071

    i read a bunch of reviews here before i watched it, they're mostly positive revews, and i deiced to go, and it turned out to be bit boring to me, the rock's acting was ok, the plot was good, just that the movie turned out to be a suspense/thriller than an action/thriller

    Snitch is snappy!

    by

    From a dads perspective: it was difficult not to get caught up in those thoughts of "what would I do?"

    Dwayne Johnson plays the dad of a son in drug trafficking trouble with the feds, puts in a solid performance in contrast with fading star Susan Sarandon who portrays, albeit unconvincingly, as a hard nosed U.S. Attorney.

    One other memorable performance was by Barry Pepper, who played a "deep cover" DEA agent. Benjamin Bratt was in this too, brief as his performance was, it was a creepy performance as a drug cartel boss.

    All in all a good movie when you have 2 hours to kill.

    Good Snitch

    by ajohnson22

    This movie was incredible and I think Dwayne Johnson's acting is gettng better and better with each passing dramatic role. None of that "superman" stuff he does in GI Joe or Fast and Furious. He really enacted a concerned father who wanted to do right by his son in making sure he didn't do time for a crime he got caught up in. I enjoyed his first dramatic turn in "Gridiron Gang" and now I like this acting role as well. Go see "Snitch" and I promise you won't be dissappointed.

    A Must See

    by MOTORCYCLISTENGINEER

    There wasn't quite as much action as I had expected, but the message that the movie delivers is a Must See, especially for young adults. It should scare the pants off any young adult or teenager about the seriousness of dealing in drugs.
    The movie itself was a little slow at times, but overall it was decent, and The Rock did a pretty creditable acting job.
    There was some language and violence, but no gore, sex or nudity, so it is ok even for young teens.

    Solidly Entertaining, End To End.

    by Alon Patterson

    The Rock tries VERY hard never to disappoint his audience and this movie is a fine example of that effort. Yes, it's a formula flick like so many others nowadays, but it's still very entertaining. At least it's not one more remake of some tired old franchise those square-headed bean counter in corporate Hollywood churn out regularly, like clockwork. If you're tired of remakes of remakes, over produced superhero franchises and potty-mouthed rom-coms passed around like they're actually funny, then you'll find fresh air in this formula, even if you leave feeling like you?ve been there, done that. This is a play well written and very well executed. No, it's not a blockbuster. It's just a good old fashioned "good movie." See it. You won't be disappointed.

    Superb true base Movie

    by

    Dwayne Johnson AKA The Rock is an excellent actor in the true base story who take on the Cartel to save his son years in prison. Plus he looks GOOD. Writing did not make sense at times ...examples are: The shooting in the yard not sure if rival gang or test. Cops were called to gun fire but next scene showed all bodies being buried in large grave. Truck chase scene was an A+. Overall I enjoyed the movie.

    A Gripping Action Movie

    by brianmed5

    The Rock is back with a vengeance in a story about a small time business man turned hired wheelman for a narcotic crime syndicate. After his son is accused of a foiled plot to smuggle narcotics, Dave Mathews (The Rock) decides to go undercover as a DEA informant and intercept the dark criminal enterprise of illegal drug smuggling. Working as an undercover agent and wheeling contraband across state lines, the Rock finds more than he could bargain for. Snitch is an action packed melodrama full of suspense, an edge of your seat climax, and a star studded performance.

    Snitch

    by carolina girl 1719

    I wasn't expecting much as only knew the star from the Fast and Furious series and had never seen him in a film before. Was pleasantly surprised. It was a good movie with a good story.

    Best movie he has ever been in.

    by georgeleague

    Wow...I thought this was going to be another brainless shoot-em-up movie, like the Expendables or something. This was much more serious, much deeper movie with an excellent story to tell. And it is based upon a true story. Well worth seeing.

    Snitch is Recommended

    by in2play

    I enjoyed Snitch. I was thoroughly entertained from start to finish. Dwayne Johnson carries his own as a leading man in this action movie. Beautiful Susan Sarandon lights up the screen every time she appears. Barry Pepper plays a bearded undercover DEA agent. Jon Bernthal is great as Daniel (Cruiser) an ex-con working for the "Snitch", enlisted to introduce him to the drug runners the government needs to bring down in order to make a deal for a lighter sentence for the trucking operation owner's son, who gets caught holding the bag of his so-called friend's drugs. Benjamin Bratt even has a cameo as the drug cartel leader. Reminds one of the good action movies from the 70's, like White Line Fever.

    I expected more action with this movie

    by eclipse80011

    When I hear that The Rock is in a movie, I expect it to be action packed. Not so with Snitch, and I was kind of disappointed about that. The movie was good, but it seemed to have cut out vital parts of the story. Not a total waste, but I would not buy it on DVD.

    Surprisingly good movie!

    by movie know it all

    We went to see this movie mainly for my husband because he likes the Rock and of course, we can only go to manly movies and I went into it with semi-low expectations and boy was I surprised! The Rock was very good! A normal but very in shape Dad who is just trying to save his son! He takes his hard knocks, he gets scared and he gets vulnerable. The kid plays an awesome part and one of the best played parts is the Rocks unwilling partner in crime. The casting is dead-on. The script does a very good job and keeping you on the edge of your seat till the very end! We both left the theater saying it was one of the best movies we have seen in a while. I will never doubt the Rock again!!

    Dewayne "Rock" Johnson does not let you down.

    by

    I enjoyed this movie although I expected more action. The story line was a really good one. It truly shows how a parents love will go to the ends of the earth for their child. Good job!!!

    Snitch

    by I AM KENO BABE

    We both liked it alot ... Better than we thought it was going to be because of the title.
    It had a story line .. not too much killing and the only problem is that we couldn't understand what some of the characters were saying even though we got the jist of their comments.
    A must see movie.
