An elite unit of the LA County Sheriff’s Dept. and the state’s most successful bank robbery crew clash as the outlaws plan a seemingly impossible heist on the Federal Reserve Bank.
A touch of ‘Heat’, a dash of ‘Usual Suspects’, and although it may not match those classics, this one will be an under-rated gem for some time. Also great performances by Pablo, O’Shea, and Fifty. Haven’t seen the followup yet, hopefully it impresses as well.
I tried watching it Monday night and I just couldn’t get into it and I tried watching another movie and couldn’t get into it either. I think I just wasn’t in the mood to watch any movies. I’ll give this one another try before the sequel comes out.
One of those Youtube shorts popped up with this on it for me. I had forgotten all about this movie. So, I just rewatched it, and man is this such a damn good movie. Great cast also. Not just Butler either. The whole cast - supporting actors and all did a fantastic job. I have to say, 50 turned into a great actor himself. If you haven’t watched this … do yourself a favor, watch it. It’s an amazingly fun watch from start to finish.
This was definitely well done. 7.0 out of 126k votes on IMDB. 4/5 here.
If you enjoyed this, then you’re likely to like “Heat” 1995. Cast includes: Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore and Jon Voight.
These two movies are so similar in structure and characters, that I think the writers were heavily influenced from their childhood.
I like “Heat” a little more, simply because the cast was so good. It’s considered one of the best heist films of the 90’s, so I’m not alone on that. 8.3 out of 731k votes on IMDB. 4.3/5 here.

One of Butlers more diverse characters and one of my favourites.
