Mason Goddard (John Travolta) is a high-end thief who works with a crew. In the opening scene, he is stealing an expensive car and discovers his lover Amy Decker (Kristin Davis) is deep cover for the FBI. He manages to get away and retires. His brother Shawn (Lukas Haas-Witness kid) has a plan to rob a safe deposit box at a bank that contains a crypto wallet. Mason goes with him. He doesn't like the situation and attempts to call the whole thing off. Shawn goes through with it. It was a set-up. They end up trapped inside the bank with 23 hostages. The bank is surrounded. No way out.

In the realm of bank robbery stand-off films, this is near the bottom. Denzel Washington and Jodie Foster made a better film.

Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity.

Jump right in from the get go and just accept that this heist crew is insanely competent at all things. There is no groundwork explaining who these people are and how they became such elite thieves. So yeah ok its a movie we don't have time to get into all that. They make a get-away after getting betrayed by one of their own crew in the opening scene. Then it cuts right to them chilling out in comfort without a worry in the world. They were betrayed by none other than an FBI agent who was romantically involved with Travolta's lead character. So this woman was a mole in their heist operation and the FBI just never ever goes after them? They obviously planted a mole and participated in almost catching the crew but no man hunt or anything.

The crew is roped into another brainless heist and without any scouting or research they go all in. The heist doesn't go as planned and requires them to play detective in order to figure out what and how to steal this precious item. What elite criminal gang would rob something they aren't even told what they're stealing, such a ridiculous premise. Eventually, they get what they're after and they come up with an escape plan that is virtually impossible to fathom even in the movies. This is pure fantasy in the realm of heists and getaways. None of this is believable including the lead police officer who was wearing a law enforcement outfit straight out Party City.

Watch this if you are a JT fan but don't expect anything but head scratching drama.

After looking at this movie my opinion.

The story line is actually not bad at all. Some of the actors played a good roll in the movie but then some where not that good. If more was done to real life and circumstances this movie could have rated 5.8 to 6.0.

More could be done in the action department for eg. Time lines to events in the movie. Travolta did good but there was not enough from the second leading actor. Maybe there could have been stronger assistant actors for travolta.

The time line of events could also be closer to real life that would have given the story more real life feeling.

That said the movie if watchable.
