B-
Hostage dramas have conventions; if "Pawn" skirts too close to them at the end, and has too many characters, it still keeps the game interesting. Go to Full Review

2/5
"Pawn's" cops and robbers game could have been far better played. Go to Full Review
Brent McKnight The Last Thing I See 07/09/2020
C-
A twisted web of story threads, layered narrative, and constantly shifting points of view. Though the film starts off strong-not great, but solid-it comes off the rails not far down the line. Go to Full Review

Leopold S @RT71373031 05/08/2025 Not sure why this got weak reviews -- I found it compelling, sharp & generally well-acted & smart. Michael Chiklis was excellent. Obviously low-budget, but I thought they dud wonders with their limitations. Really very good & worth watching. See more Cristian s @cristiansj 08/10/2023 Creo que exageraron demasiado con los giros en el guión, fueron tantos que terminaron siendo ridículos y hasta confusos. Entretenida pero nada más. See more 10/24/2021 Boa trama, entroncada, cheia de mistérios, mortes, cérebro voando, reviravoltas, forçado em alguns momentos (vários), mas que podem ser relevantes se você aceitar degustar de uma entretenimento leve e despretensioso, adorável, grandes perdas no início e no decorrer do filme, plot twists de respeito, adoráveis embates... See more mauro l @Mauro_Lanari 08/16/2018 Forest Whitaker and Ray Liotta in a movie with lots of twists and too little plot. (Mauro Lanari) See more 08/14/2015 Not what I'd hoped from the title. bit like that big tease of a programme pawn stars See more 08/08/2015 A robbery at a diner goes wrong and soon turns into a hostage situation. Added problem is diner has links to Mafia. See more Read all reviews
