Quentin Conners (Jason Statham) is a veteran police detective who is less than pleased when he's assigned a new partner, Shane Dekker (Ryan Phillippe). While Conners has been with the force for years, Dekker is a rookie, and it doesn't take Conners long to realize his partner has a lot to learn about the nuts and bolts of investigation. However, the two are forced to put aside their differences when they're given an important new case to crack -- a brilliant thief (Wesley Snipes) has masterminded a series of high-stakes bank heists, and the police are baffled as to how he seems to know what they're up to just as soon as they do. Chaos also stars Justine Waddell as a police officer who has become involved with one of the detectives. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Luke Goodsell, Empire Magazine Australasia
Chaos plays it by the book, offering up the mismatched partner formula mixed in with crooked cops and routine twists that motor along to an unremarkable finish.

David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
...it's awfully difficult to look past the almost laughably inept instances of plotting within Giglio's screenplay...
-
Urban Cinefile Critics, Urban Cinefile
Slightly derivative, the plot is nevertheless a well constructed thriller and the target audience will be well satisfied.
