I was only interested in this movie because it was starring Robert De Niro. But he played a mobster in it who you’re not gonna exactly like. Furthermore, the film offers an array of scenes with a bus just like inSpeed that the story and most of the scenes in the movie depend on. But on the other hand, it’s shot quite well and the action scenes also look much better than most American action movie scenes today, so it’d be a shame to condemn this movie so quickly. And if you last until the end, De Niro fans mayreally enjoy one thing. I know I did. (11.07.2016)

I expected it to be very stupid, but it's not stupid at all. This is actually a functional film that can surprise you at certain moments. Gina Carano is criminally underutilized because she should be kicking ass, but other than that, all the main actors did their part and I like that De Niro is not afraid of these cheaper things that simply end up being B-movies. But good B-movies. (25.11.2015)

Scott Mann tries to make a Michael Mann film and fails miserably, and his sort of raw, shaky digital camera shots are completely doomed. It's almost incomprehensible what an inept director he is, because, with this kind of acting potential, where every person oozes charisma, and with such a strong premise, one could do wonders. Similarly, the screenwriter obviously took a vacation during production, because cramming in so much crap is really an art, and the closer the film gets to the finale, the worse it gets. It's dominated by a would-be grandiose twist that easily surpasses the one in Ocean’s Eleven. If you like De Niro, don't watch it. (17.04.2016)

A proper genre direct-to-video B-movie, the kind of which video stores used to be full of. It has only one major flaw, not so much that the whole heist schtick is too predictable, but if I had Gina Carano and Dave Bautista on opposite sides of the barricade in the same movie, I would let them beat the living crap out of each other.
