Viewing Notes

Not sure why this is pegged as one of the worst movies of 2018. I like it. The plot is definitely a derivative of the superior HEAT but with much less nuanced characterizations and visual style, but that doesn’t stop it from being entertaining and inventive. This was the Blu I picked up at 2nd and Charles for cheap.
