This movie is about a bank robbery and what happens within the bank and with the cops outside. Don't go into this movie expecting miracles, its not fantastic. The acting is good, but to be honest it doesn't make much sense really. I wouldn't buy this movie, or watch again, but that is only my opinion.
Given that any film with Denzil Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster, Willem Dafoe and Christopher Plummer in the cast cannot be all bad, this movie was never going to crash.
The plot is reasonable, the photography excellant, the actors earned their pay and the pace was just about right, fast but not frantic.
It was not however quite to my taste, for as the story progressed there were details and situations that showed at the seams. Apart from these little contrivences the ending was also too ambiguous for my liking.
Nevertheless a well made film which gave the audience something to think about. Worth the money.
