Pippi Movie / A wonderful movie recommendation every day
In the past, the impression of Grand Theft Auto movies on the audience always appeared as a team with high IQ: mature and sophisticated techniques, rigorous and thorough planning, and occasionally a few funny characters in the team made some accidents, but the missions were thrilling and the theft could be carried out smoothly. Take the goal, and finally retreat.
Such films include "Stealing the Sky", "Arhat" series, "Mission Impossible" series and "Fast and Furious" series.
Although this kind of film has a simple plot, it is also loved by movie fans for its action superstars, grand scenes, and explosion of special effects. After being released, they can basically get a lot of money at the box office.
Today Pico also recommends an anti-traditional thieves film "League of Thieves" directed by Steven Soderbergh, which will be released in the United States in August 2017.
The Thief League丨2017
Logan Lucky
Director: Steven Soderbergh
Starring: Channing Tatum/ Daniel Craig/ Adam Driver/ Lily Keaf/ Hilary Swank
Jimmy Logan (played by Channing Tatum) is a retired sports star who has a knee injury and works on a highway, barely making ends meet.
However, the boss still saw him not pleasing to his eyes, and randomly found a reason to fire him. Poor and destitute Logan was filed for divorce by his wife, and even his daughter was taken to live in other cities with him.
Faced with the pressure of both family and work, Jimmy Logan went to the bar to seek help from his younger brother Clyde Logan (Adam Driver).
Logan's brother was a retired soldier from World War II and lost his left hand on the battlefield.
But as soon as Logan arrived at the bar, he met his brother who was a bartender and was laughed at by the drinkers.
Logan, who was not pleasing to the eye, naturally wanted to stand up for his younger brother, and his younger brother also set fire to the alcoholic's car in a fit of anger.
The two brothers seemed to be driven into desperation by life. In order to change his fate, his brother Logan decided to steal the racing track vault, which contained a lot of ill-gotten wealth.
Although the younger brother was reluctant at first, he finally agreed to join the theft plan.
It just so happened that the pipeline under the racing field was under construction. Logan found that there was only one wall between the racing track vault and the underground construction passage, so Logan formulated a thorough theft plan.
In order for the robbery to proceed smoothly, the two brothers went to prison to try to pull blasting expert Joe Bang (Daniel Craig) into the gang. Joe, who was only 6 months in prison, did not want to join at first.
But after learning that his money had been taken away by his younger brother's wife, he immediately agreed to join the theft plan.
At Joe's recommendation, Logan found two more helpers. In order to change his life and the "curse" of the Logan family's unfortunate fate, Logan also pulled his sister into the gang.
Since the project is suddenly rushed and can be completed a week in advance, the theft plan must also be implemented in advance!
In order to meet with Joe, Brother Logan deliberately caused a car accident and successfully met with him in jail.
They put the painted cockroaches into the ventilation duct, and at the same time forged a cake order and sent it to the event management company, causing the cockroaches to raging so that the next day they could disguise the cockroach-killing workers and enter the company's installation equipment.
In the prison, Joe pretended to be choked on food and was sent to the infirmary, where he was picked up by Logan's brother.
The two men dressed in disguise and entered the underground construction passage smoothly from the passage, and Joe skillfully made the improvised bomb.
In order to buy them time, the accomplices in the prison deliberately made trouble, confronted the warden, and focused the attention of the prison guards on them.
In the underground passage, after Joe’s bomb was successfully detonated, the money was smoothly sent from the pneumatic conveying passage directly into the already prepared bag.
Seeing that everything was going smoothly, Rogan's prosthesis was suddenly sucked into the pipe and disappeared.
Brother Logan was eager to retrieve the prosthesis because he was afraid that things would be revealed and be sentenced to real punishment!
His brother Logan hurriedly comforted him, making money first, and then looking for a prosthesis, to make sure it's okay!
At this time, the security guards spotted smoke coming out of the underground passage, so they sent two people to the underground to check. In the process, they happened to ran into a garbage truck used by the gang to transport banknotes.
The two fooled the security guards with simple excuses, and got out without any risk.
When exiting the electronic door, the small accident that could not be opened also made everyone embarrassed for a while. Fortunately, Logan came forward to solve the problem!
The banknotes were shipped out smoothly, and the theft gang successfully escaped.
Brother Joe and Rogan also returned to the prison disguised as firemen in the fake fire created by inmates, and nothing seemed to have happened.
Logan also participated in his daughter's competition in time after finishing the game, and heard the song his daughter sang for him during the competition.
The theft aroused the attention of FBI agents, and in the face of FBI agents' investigation of the vault theft, the warden was reluctant to admit the management security problems in his prison, which created obstacles for FBI agents to investigate the details of the crime.
After Logan and the theft team succeeded, Logan returned part of the stolen money on his own initiative.
After media reports, the unsuspecting masses also called them thieves!
The stolen event company also decided to cancel the investigation of the case under the pretext that it had compensation from the insurance company, so as to avoid revealing the illegal insider about the flow of funds.
The remaining money in his hands was not only distributed to everyone involved in the theft, but also to the inmates who had helped with things in the prison before, and the staff of the event management company who was wronged by receiving the cockroach cake. Individuals are both surprised and delighted.
In the end, the relationship between Logan and his ex-wife eased, and he found a new girlfriend, and got closer to his daughter.
Other people's lives have also stepped into a dull life and started a new life.
Although "League of Thieves" also talked about a successful theft, the members of the theft gang in the film were not professional thieves, and the members felt that each other was unreliable, so that the development of the theft was expected by the audience. The movie is 119 minutes long, but the laughs interspersed in the details are surprising.
Moreover, the event management company is reluctant to ask the FBI to disclose the details of the flow of funds because of its own funds. The warden wants the FBI's perfunctory treatment of prison management issues. How ridiculous.
On the other hand, the film also reflects the simple nature of the little people.
Throughout the planning and implementation of the theft plan, Logan has been reminding members not to be too greedy, and to be careful and thoughtful in details.
In the end, the extra money was returned to the event company, and the money was also distributed to other people who helped in the theft process, which made everyone happy.
Of course, the movie story is fictitious. After you have seen it and laughed, you still have to return to reality, and you must make money through legal means.
The video is recommended here, and fans and friends who like it can come and watch it in person.
