Crime 101

Really enjoyed and all the cast including LA itself were on the ball and great nods to the films that’s trying to emulate Bullet, The Thomas Crown affair and Heat.

Some people have TDS (Trump Devotion Syndrome).

Yeah this will be my next cinema watch, hopefully over the next couple of days.

I don't care about his politics but Ruffalo was in the best show of last year imo (Task on HBO). Can we just assess movies by their quality and no culture war nonsense?

Re: Crime 101, I didn't have high hopes because I was spectical of Hemsworth as the lead and the cringe title but sounds like exactly what we say isn't made for cinemas anymore.

This is beta male behavior mate.

The movie is good by the way.

Crime 101 – 6/10

The exact type of thriller that everybody bemoans the lack of these days. It has a strong cast, a decent plot, some good set pieces and the 2-hour 20-minute runtime races by. Problem is that there’s absolutely nothing on display that we haven’t seen before. No one member of the cast stands out. Some are underutilized (Nick Nolte) whereas others (Monica Barbaro) only exist to flesh out the leads. At no point does it ever feel real or dangerous.

A decent watch while it’s on but leaves no lasting impression at all. Empty calories. File this one next to The Town.

Just watched it. Great movie. It is a bit like Heat. And is almost as good. Just not quite. Keoghan is very good in it.

It's nowhere near how good Heat is. I kept comparing parts of the storyline to Heat alright but it's just a poor man's version.

Some bits are ludicrous. Guy pulls off big armed robberies that surely make headlines across the city, then argues with his contact Nick Nolte (think Nate in Heat) at the counter of a bloody food market, and does this every time he pulls off a robbery??

Ending too was ridiculous. Too unrealistic to wrap it up like that.

Don't get so obviously put out by another opinion that disagrees with you.
