If you love Heist movies, then you’ll love this one!
Expertly crafted film that has high attention to detail and preparation. Caan is terrific and the story is efficiently paced.
Fantastic crime thriller with great cinematography and unforgettable performances, score is wonderful, no real surprises but it still works
The Rocky of crime thrillers, but instead of feeling uplifted, the movie leaves you feeling empty (which is the point).
If you enjoyed Drive (2011), there is a good chance you will enjoy this for the same reasons.
There is a thin line between the american dream and carnage
Incredibly electric and so real with its crime world specifics
can't help but nod furiously at the accuracy of these people. they all feel like real people in helpless uncontrollable real life moments.
The film goes for realism which leads to a bit of boredom here and there but its a well done character study and heist film
This is a excellent crime thriller by Michael Mann
