Heist 88.

This movie to say the least was good until literally the last few minutes I hated the ending. When I was scrolling though prime video I saw this and thought I love heist movies and it was until one of the criminals made a agreement with the police that suck a lot and I felt like they just did it as a quick ending it was abrupt and frankly seemed unfinished. I would have preferred to not see the ending. I hated the character for ratting everyone else including the main mastermind. This is making my blood boil like is it mean to say I didn't care for his family because he had to "save" them like you were going to get away with it but you to make the fricken deal that's so stupid in my opinion.

The film works through a given opportunity for a criminal to strike riches ine last time and the only way to do it is with a team of young gullible inside employees willing to leave their ordinary day to day life for an escape to a hidden affair full of riches. The film story is built on the trust and bonding between the youths and their ability to coordinate with their new criminal tasks while the law seeks to prevail. The sequencing in the film is geared towards building suspense and tension on whether or not they will pull off the hiest. I would recommend this to anyone who like the Ocean's movies.

An interesting story on this movie could not save it from the bad writing and flat acting. It feels like a film school project. Over emoting and corny dialog are a lot to try to escape. The movie claims to be based on actual events. I was not familiar with the story, before watching the movie. The idea that a heist could be pulled of in such a manner is what made the film have any interest whatsoever. Because the events took place in the 1980's when banks were making the switch from humans and paper over to computers and bits it is hard to imagine that more people didn't try something similar. Sadly, the production value of this movie are nowhere near the money the robbers stole.

This started out with so much promise. Courtney B. Vance played a masterful role. The ensemble cast was very believable and gave a very realistic performance. But... as the movie progressed I was waiting for the climax and kept on waiting. I understand this was loosely based on a true story but since they were already taking liberties with the plot they could have spiced it up. The ending was so anticlimactic it left me unsatisfied. Don't get me wrong the ending was a surprise but it could have given the audience more. There was no where are they now. There was no follow up on the money. It just ended.

After a few minutes into this film you get the idea that the writer is still stuck in high school. A quick review of his credentials and the directors and you'll see that neither of them can create anything above a 4.7 rating. Not much hope here. I stayed as long as I dared, then started skipping. In heist films there has to be some sort of tension or creative characters or some risk involved. Mostly with this film we have high school kids acting tough and it just doesn't look natural against brain dead cops. I guess the writer wanted to let everyone know that kids can be smarter than the police. Sure. Congrats. I got the ending and got the bare minimum of a payoff ending. Time wasted. 2/10 for some interesting scenes, not much else.

Why?!?! Why would you end a movie like this??? Like, what the freak is this??? What were you thinking??? Really! Mad I even watched it just because of the ending!!! You're talking about anxiety. My roommate was so upset of how it ended that it F'd up his buzz. Just not nice at all. That was very mean and how rude. You don't need a part 2 for a true story... just tell us how everyone's life turned out after this! Literally 7 more minutes to make an even 1hour 30. If you have not seen this already, then let me (along with many others) tell ya... DON'T. Do not waste your time. Watch something more suspenseful that won't piss you off with an unfinished ending. Geez. Piiiiised. Ugh! I KNEW I should have watched "13 minutes" Tornado movie and called it a night. Oh and ohhhh... Angela Bassett put her NAME on this crap. What. Angela? You agreed to this😲? Girl! 😳Smdh.

This movie doesn't make any sense. Why was he betrayed? By that 140 IQ guy? Not even 50 iq i would say. Jeremy Horne wasnt intending to screw them. Everyone would have got their share of the deal. So what was that low IQ guy problem? I have no idea how such a disaster comes to life. Bad director, bad script, bad idea, nothing makes sense. Not worth watching. This movie doesn't make any sense.

Heist movies need that element of fun and adventure, this movie heads in that direction but doesn't quite get there. The plot gets a little confusing and in trying to understand the moves involved it leaves the viewer lost at times. It is also a little hard to believe that 3 people on the spot agree to help rob a bank when approached by a total stranger, it's just too convenient. All if a sudden it's the heist day and the excitement builds and they are nearly away and then the movie ends ! I just sat there going, really ? Is that it ? Either they ran out of money or the director got confused because it is too blunt and quick leaving many questions unanswered, very badly done. .

if you love this movie drop some emojis

This is like a high budget junior college film . There is A LOT of bad acting in this film, but it may not be the actors fault. I sat watching and often predicting what the next line would be. The script dialog is so weak, so bad, so trite, I was embarrased for the actors who are forced to regurgitate it. Simply awful. You never get to know more than one character well enough to care whether they are successful in this heist. It was also comical how many of the young people were against committing this crime ( and I have no problem robbing an American bank) and then, very suddenly all fear and scruples are laid aside and they're all in. Lazy writing and so what storytelling.. The ending was lazy and weak. I'm surprised Showtime ever let this see the light of day on their channel.
