A young TSA agent fights to outsmart a mysterious traveler who blackmails him into letting a dangerous package slip onto a Christmas Eve flight.

Critics Consensus

Taron Egerton and an against-type Jason Bateman make for great adversaries in Carry-On, a throwback thriller that clears all checkpoints of plot logic with its confident execution.

"Carry-On" is an action movie that is definitely a Christmas movie, no ifs, ands or buts about it.

3/5

... A filling chunk of crude entertainment – as carb-rich and greens-free as the baked potato you’ll probably eat with it.

The one-dimensional characters and lack of awareness around how airports work—to say nothing of the shameless bootlicking throughout—turn Carry-On into an immediately forgettable holiday hatewatch.

3.5/5

A fairly entertaining and intriguing film that keeps you glued to the screen and, yes, let’s call it what it is: a popcorn flick, even if it never made it to theaters. At times formulaic and with some implausible moments, though. [Full Review in Spanish]

7/10

Carry-On proves itself to be more than a mid-level thriller with exceptional performances from its two leads and consistent work from Jaume Collet-Serra and his team of talented craftspeople.

I'm a Taron's fan, I watched this movie because of him, I think it's cool that he wants to play a pedestrian characters and explore the fear, the anxiety and deeper emotions. I'm not super interested in the story but overall a good watch.

After what we been through at the airport dealing with TSA at Newark airport in New Jersey , this movie is trivial in comparison

A super intense movie, especially for Bateman. The only action I remember him in is Game Night and in that, he plays the hero. I was surprised at first, but he did do a really good job playing the part. The ending did seem like a small budget “get rid of everything” but overall, I would watch it again. (Just maybe not on a plane)
