Entertaining movie; well worth a watch;

Rating: 7/10 (27 October 2016)

Overall: I would recommend this movie as it is a good movie however I wasn't quite as impressed the first time I watched it because people had hyped it up way too much for me. Watch the movie and enjoy it; it is quite good.
Good: The cinematography was fantastic and the acting is very good. The story is pretty well told. To make a good heist movie you need an exceptional plan or twist and this movie is not a exception. The heist plan and grand reveal were both interesting and a moment that you really should have seen coming. Good pacing and the minor effects used are acceptable. The villains are quite interesting as is Denzel Washington's character. Despite feeling very misplaced, the random moments of humour made me chuckle a bit.
Bad: The ending is quite poor, not the grand reveal or the fact that the villains win, but the core ending is quite poor. The tone was all over the place with more serious moments and some more laughable moments. I didn't like the music nor did I like Denzel's partner who was just there to satisfy cop cliché 101. All the other characters, as well as his partner, felt pointless and weren't interesting.
Best Part: The grand reveal/villain escapes bank
MVP: Clive Owen as Danton Russell
7/10
