The movie probably has an interesting plot and some good performances, but we couldn't get past the gratuitous sex and foul language. We quit trying after 15 minutes.

Statham may have been the wrong pick for this movie. Don't get me wrong, he played it VERY WELL, but it is not the mindless, car chase, shoot-em-up that I expect from Statham. In fact, the criminals are so innept that I wouldn't believe it. But the unbelievable part is the part based on the TRUE STORY. That's what makes this movie worth seeing. If you want a suspense filled, well acted, psuedo documentary, this is a great one.

This was an exciting movie to watch, but the nudity was totally unnecessary to make it a good movie. In fact, the profanity and drug use could have been eliminated as well.

I can see why it is rated R and I am glad my son(15) was not watching with us. it is slow and boring.We turned it off half way through it. Not worth it.

This movie was absolutely disgusting. Played it for only 15 minutes and could not take it anymore.

Scott and Terry R.

Too much bad language and sex scenes.

Based on actual events and NOT the same old, tired heist type movie. Jason Statham is at his best! This is a must see for the film quality and the characters!

I actually rented this a couple months ago and forgot to write a review on it. I thought the movie might was pretty overdone at parts, but it was very entertaining overall. I'd recommend it, but don't expect to be just blown away by great storyline (if you're a Jason Statham fan I don't think you will be too harsh a critic on storyline anyways). On an unrelated note, what the heck is up with all the people on blockbuster.com who come into R rated movie review section and just go nuts about nudity? It's rated R and lists nudity on the disclaimer for a reason people!
