Critics Consensus: So rote that its star is overshadowed by his wig, The Forger offers nary a thrill nor a scintilla of suspense that couldn't be overpowered by a decent basic-cable drama.

Reviews

Radio Times

David Parkinson

Even though this is far from good, it does have some disarming moments.

The plot is a little lackluster -- the climactic heist isn't very climactic -- but director Philip Martin creates a strong sense of place and a strong sense of community among the characters.

The Forger is an uninspired and flat crime-drama that, despite its relatively sellable premise and solid casting, just doesn't come together.

Independent Online (South Africa)

Theresa Smith

The idea is actually interesting - a dysfunctional family trying to get their act together while planning some illegality and teaching the youngster about Impressionist art - but the half-baked execution falls short.

The Forger is a moderately entertaining, low-key combination heist film, crime picture and family drama.
