OVERALL:
Disappointing on so.many levels.1โ
ACTING:
Weak and awkward...at best. 1/2โ
WRITING: 1/2โ
Many irrelevant and weak storylines that you might expect to tie in to the plot at some point. Instead...these sub storylines...just kind...of...fizzle out...and...float away...la la la
FILMING: 1\2โ
Amateur and low budget
SPECIAL EFFECTS: 1โ
Maybe the special effects would have been up to pare two or three decades ago.
PLOT: 1โ
What plot? If you make it to the climax...and that's a big if...you'll find little satisfaction here. Instead you'll be left with the impression that everyone on set was told to wrap it up and call it a day; skipping post production altogether. The whole thing seems dazed & confused~from start to finish!!
It is possible that there might have actually been a decent plot burried is all the rubble somewhere. Perhaps this movie even had a decent script at one point...but the whole thing is taped together with silly puddy and missing so many pieces that it's hard to make out what it is or care.
TAKE AWAY: 1โ
I felt undervalued as an audience member.
The bad guys end up walking out into the line of fire and are killed...all for 1.3 million dollars that was to be split 5 ways...dumb!
The bank job that was planned with military precision all falls apart because of one trigger happy dumb guy with a machine gun.
Instead of the remaining 4 guys taking on one shot and dying cop and one old cop and leaving then...they choose to stay and wait for SWAT and nightfall to arrive before walking out with guns a blazing (masks up) to be pinged off holding a bag of cash...which by the way was in this particular bank why?
And no reward is offered for watching a Nicholas Cage movie. His character doesn't even save the day...although you've been lead to believe he will. Instead a bullied kid we know little about and an unexplained Interpol agent shoots the last remaining bad guy who just happens to stop mid escape to shoot the old cop (Nicolas Cage) in the shin...dumb.
...and of course...lets not forget about these specially trained mercenary type bad guys that came to America to rob, blow up and randomly kill numerous people...all for 1.3 million $'s.
Dumb, dumb dumb!-5โ
