    Good movie! Banderas' acting is pretty bad, but the storyline is interesting, and there are a few twists. I enjoyed it.

    I loved this movie. A sharp, tense, clever, stylish and exhilerating edge of your seat joy-ride. A pulse-pounding thinking man's thriller that snaps and sparks with action, humor and suspense. An unpredictable and keep you guessing adreniline-rush. A very smart and thrilling heis...( read more)t drama that delivers with fantastic twist and turns. An excellent film thats very entertaining. It's very well-crafted and superbly performend by it's cast. It's riveting and dazzeling whenever Freeman and Banderas act together in a scene. These two actors have wonderful chemistry. Antonio Banderas and Morgan Freeman are absolutely sensational. Robert Forester is teriffic. Radha Mitchell is wonderful.

    This was ok...I actually love Morgan Freeman and everything he does is great, this was only ok. Reminded me of movies done over and over again. The story was good, same ole plotline though, one thief screwed over by another. The cast was however amazing, freeman is awesome, Bande...( read more)ras always brings his game and even mitchell shined. Just wish the overall execution would have been stronger, that would have made this a great movie. I give it 3 1/2 stars because of the cast...

    The title of this film mislead me to be honest, I thought it was a romcom with thieves cracking safes haha it turns out to be a serious action flick about betrayal and vault cracking. After a good intro sequence on an underground train, the first half of the film is pretty boring...( read more) really, just meeting characters and setting up the plot. You think its going nowhere fast but then you get a sexy vault cracking sequence and a nice surprising twist which I didn't see coming haha
    The film is turned upside down (in a Usual Suspects kinda way) and actually lost me for afew minutes, after you catch on whats just happened it does come across as a rip from other films but it still works nicely.

    Cast are OK, Banderas has tonnes of makeup on to make him look younger and nice n tanned LOL and Freeman reprises his role from 'Wanted', silly but its alright, it just keeps its head above the waves due to afew decent sequences.

    Silly in some spots, but this a good action/crime movie with Freeman (his movies are always a best bet to see/rent). Good story line and action.

    Banderas really sucks.

    I saw so many films like this that I'm getting bored. I had the hope that with Antonio Banderas and Morgan Freeman this film could worth a shot but no way.
