Contraband

Synopsis

To save his brother-in-law from a New Orleans drug dealer (Giovanni Ribisi), reformed smuggler Mark Wahlberg heads to Panama to score a massive shipment of counterfeit cash. With the authorities breathing down his neck and his wife (Kate Beckinsale) under constant threat, the plan must go without a hitch. It doesn't. Director Baltasar Kormakur brings bags of Nordic grit to an industrial strength thriller that moves fast and plays rough.
