Heaven help me for the way I am… One doesn’t need a good
defense for Criminal. This
preposterously silly, but consistently enjoyable, actioner boasts an insane
amount of star power for a film with such a ridiculous script. One doesn’t
download or pop-in a flick like Criminal
for some good dialogue, though, so anyone looking for an escapist adventure in
the comfort of one’s own home can happily plead ‘guilty pleasure.’
