Ex-con and reformed sociopath Dylan Forrester (Scott Eastwood) is trying to quietly serve out his parole -- with the help of a steady supply of antidepressants and his eccentric psychiatrist (Mel Gibson). But when his brother dies under mysterious circumstances, Dylan breaks parole and, with a dogged FBI agent (Famke Janssen) on his trail, goes to uncover the truth. A band of heavily armed mercenaries wants something Dylan's brother was hiding, and Dylan will need all his guile and tactical skills to survive in this action-packed thriller costarring Kevin Durand and Tyrese Gibson.

Save for that one confounding scene with Janssen, for the rest of the movie Gibson is alone, taking periodic phone calls from D and handing out absolutely horrible, uninformed, dangerous and irresponsible advice...

It takes some chutzpah to name your siege thriller Dangerous, and unfortunately, there's not enough of it in the Scott Eastwood actioner of that name.

A shambles of a movie, with a plot so contrived yet abstract that you spend each scene asking yourself how it's all supposed to add up.

1.5/5

It takes an appealing cast and gives them unappealing characters, leaving them with the unenviable task of moving the audience to actually care about what we’re seeing. Sadly, we never do.

There isn't an awful lot about David Hackl's Dangerous that feels remotely original, least of all its stale, generic title that can't help but feel tragically ironic when the finish product is one that plays things entirely safe

It is worth the price of admission just to see how much Scott Eastwood is like his old man.

This movie is too dangerous to your intellect to watch. Mel Gibson has lost his mind being associated with this rotten mess.

The storyline seemed okay, not bad. Most of the actors did really well. The wimpy, whiny guy who follows the lead character around is incredibly annoying and a terrible actor. i got bored with a storyline after a while. I think there were many gaps where it could’ve been a bit better. Overall, not bad—worth a watch.

It would've been so much better if his family weren't so unlikable and annoying, seems like the kid is the only smart one along with Eastwood's character.
