6 / 10
It’s hard to give two hoots about any of this lot, but at least the action exudes enough professionalism to give us something to look forward to. Not terrible, but undemanding.

5 / 10
There is plenty of nonsense, a great deal of stylish posturing and clothes-horsing, and a few action sequences that manage to be both gripping and preposterous.

5 / 10
"Takers" seems to harbor some greater, operatic aspirations (witness the overused slow-motion shootouts) and winds up delivering little more than bland pop. In that respect, the movie offers audiences a dilemma that its central characters could surely appreciate — a heist without much of a payoff.
- Brian Lowry

The ending is a bit too grim and borderline-pretentious for a movie of this sort, but for as long as it stays close to the basics of the genre, it's not a bad way to spend an evening.
