Director F. Gary Gray is not a big name either. The most familiar movie recently is "Law Abiding Citizen" starring tough guy Gerald Butler. But I still like his "Ace Vs. Ace", Samuel Jackson VS Kevin Spacey, very good acting, and the story is compact, ups and downs, it is really good-looking. But in terms of perspective, in "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun", a group of people such as Mark Wahlberg, Charlize Theron, Edward Norton, Jason Statham were gathered. But after Charlize Theron won the Oscar, Mark Wahlberg became popular again after "Infernal Affairs", Jason Statham has now fully carried the banner of Hollywood's first star, and Edward Norton has always contributed to his level. Although he is not a box office leader, he is definitely a leader in the literary niche. It is not easy for F. Gary Gray to bring them online and perform a wonderful story of theft. It can be said that it is a miniature version of "Eleven Arhats", but "Eleven Arhats" also appeared later.
However, I watched this film after "Two Smoking Guns". I should have followed Guy Ritchie to watch his "Stealing and Robbery." After seeing this, he didn't continue to search for "Snatch". In fact, I talked about Ning Hao by Guy Ritchie in the last blog post, but compared to "Two Smoke Guns", "Stealing and Robbery" is in Ning Hao's "Crazy Stone" and "Crazy Racing". "The impact of the two "crazy" is almost the "stone" and "competition" in "Stealing and Robbery" are divided into two stories. If there is no "Two Smoking Guns", then "Stealing and Robbery" can become a more exciting classic. However, it is a pity that film history only recognizes pioneering work. For works that follow the trend, the recognition is always that the market is greater than the art. As a result, "Stealing and Robbery" earns more money than "Two Smoking Guns", and "Crazy Racing" also makes much more money than "Crazy Stone". Talking about Guy Ritchie in this movie that has nothing to do with Guy Ritchie is a little bit nonsense. However, who said that a good title should be translated into this way? The concepts of "stealing the sky and changing the day" and "stealing, stealing and cheating" can't be seen from the text alone. So, you just read it, I'll just write it.
In fact, only in terms of the visibility of the story, "Shooting the Sky" is still very good. A group of robbers with a clear division of labor made a vote in Venice, Italy. When everyone was celebrating, they found that one of them had hacked them and swept away the robbed gold. Pirates are also top grades, and the role played by Edward Norton, the characterless thief, almost seems to be his performance, which is very interesting. However, the few robbers who were dumbfounded after being hacked are the protagonists in the film. They are bent on taking back the fruits of their labor, so they once again plan a similar way to the beginning of the robbery, which is almost the same. The main aim is "Edward Norton". He did not write in the same place. Unfortunately, "Edward Norton" was clever and was mistaken by cleverness, and finally began to speak. This process seems to be full of joy, but it is not a comedy like "Snatch and Snatch", but a compact and exciting look. It's not better than "Stealing, Robbery", but it's also enough for entertainment.
Well, in fact, this film is not excellent, so there is no need to continue to interpret it. However, since there is still a sequel to watch, it is not a loss to come to make up the lesson if you haven't watched it, and you might as well watch it when the sequel is released. At that time, gathering Mark Wahlberg, Charlize Theron, and Jason Statham will not be a simple matter. Although Edward Norton does not appear anymore, but with just these few buddies who are already extraordinary, it would be impossible to want them to deal with it carelessly, unless the director's book is really bad enough.
