2/5

This smalltown revenge thriller starts off well but takes a fatally long time to gather momentum.

Take Back is time-wasting trash that should be avoided at all costs, unless you're a masochist who is compelled to see all of [Mickey] Rourke's horrible movies in the final years of his career.

C-

When the Whites get to cut loose, they make the most of it, but those opportunities are disappointingly minimal.

2.5/5

White is by far the most impressive aspect of a thriller that starts off hot, then cools down to such a degree that it never quite recovers

6.5/10

It's a great film to relax at home with and enjoy a steady stream of light suspense and action... and support up-and-coming stars.
