I expected worse from this action packed heist movie. I was afraid of a cheesy B crime flick, with lousy actors, characters and topic. But I am rather fairly good surprised. The characters are interesting, well described - the two brothers, the hood with his drug addicted sister, the cops with their own family problems...- I would say that there are no leads in this cat and mouse, cops vs robbers tale. There is only one bad guy, as the HEAT's Waingro. In this actioner, HEAT is nearly every where. But I find it normal. Many pictures do since Michael Mann's masterpiece release, back in 1996.
Matt Dillon and Paul Walker don't "play" on the same side of the law, but the two of them give here powerful and believable performances. I would have better seen Walker in the cop character. A good surprise, after all.
The heist M.O. makes me think of the Italian JOB (2003) one...
A very entertaining actioner. I prefer it to Ben Affleck's THE TOWN. It's not Affleck's one is worst, but I prefer this one.
