Just watch it as a shootout movie

I have to say that I am a little disappointed with Gerard Butler's acting skills. I feel that the characterization is too simple and rude, and it is a little too hard to portray the male protagonist as a man of temperament. In addition, in the play, the conflict between the male protagonist's work and family is deliberately set up and old-fashioned, which is completely indifferent. The character of the villain is also a little single, and the family scene of the villain wants to express that the thugs still have flesh and blood purposes, but after reading it, I just feel it is redundant. Although there is a reversal at the end of the film, it is still difficult to feel the sincerity of the screenwriter and director. If there is anything to be gained from watching this movie, it is to understand the security measures of the Los Angeles Fed and some of the operating procedures. This film can't really give 4 stars, so I have to rate it like this.

    Learn from Michael Mann to learn the portrait of the thief, the design and scheduling of the shootout scene, the background and the confrontation of the good and evil characters, and the realistic robbery with all the details. The script is much better than Goodgast 03's "Straight Forward", and it is still a good debut director. However, there is still a problem of low-eye and low-handedness when comparing the script and the finished film. In addition, the original story is more than 140 minutes in length, which is even enough to hold up a mini-series. The branch is an example. The second part has been confirmed and approved.

    The police and the robbers fight to the death and the other, and in the end, it seems that the younger brother is the controller. The reverse of this ending does not make people feel good. There are a lot of bugs in the plot, and the gunfight is okay. Gerrard has to make himself out of the flesh huh~
