The Last Heist

This Movie would pass as a semi-okay student Project. Feels like that there was no money for a good script, good actors, better cameras, good special effects, and no money at all for post production.

But this isn't a student film, this is not even Mike Mendez's first film. And i don't see why Netflix payed money for this, waste of time, predictable bad movie! I feel sorry for Henry Rollins, and what has happened to him.

writing 10 lines here feels like more work, than Guy Stevenson put into the Script.

The Best thing about this Movie is the Poster!

It's funny reading the 1 star reviews. Like "they didn't spend a dime to make this movie". Funny. Really do you know how much even independent films cost to make? The acting was terrible as some say. Maybe they need to watch TITANIC again. The acting was par. IT HAD ITS MOMENTS. It was good pace. Good quality and sound. They might of tried to hard with the Web effect. It definitely made the movie more interesting on what's going to happen next. Definitely worth a watch. This is just to add 10 lines even though I already have ten lines in. Good effort. Locations were simple. Primarily a old bank, a few rooms in the bank, and the exterior.

In the main, cardboard characters collide with wooden acting.

That said, Henry Rollins demonstrates that he can overcome the obstacle of ropey material and still deliver a decent performance. What a shame he don't recognise ropey material in the first instance. Dressed like an undertaker, he does a capable job of playing the creepy, serial killer. Giving the best performance of all he elevates himself above cliché.

The story doesn't really hold together. In places, purpose-wise some of the characters' actions don't make any sense. They place themselves in harm's way to achieve no, apparently, useful goal. Both the good guys and the bad guys seem to be trying to trip themselves up in places.

A good heist, in the movies at least, should be tight and methodical, think Heat (1995). They get in, get rich and get away. Most robbbers don't want to run into the police and get caught. Presumably. These guys take all day. There is no sense of impending deadline, so there's no tension.

Conflict be shouldn't delivered in a way that makes characters unsympathetic. The robbers swear and gesticulate at one other too often to seem mature enough to be professional. Acting like juvenile delinquents makes them even more unsympathetic. This carry-on produces a sense of conflict but an irksome one.

I could go on but it's too depressing.

Overall, this lacks sympathetic characters and, because you cannot care about any of the characters, any real tension. It's slow, clumsy and clichéd. Television does it better.

This movie is a waste of time. The acting is subpar. The actors are melodramatic. The basic actions of the police are dumb. If you are taking fire you call for backup. You don't just keep delivering your poorly written lines. Get some basic firearm training for your cop actors. I saw a cop trying to throw bullets out of his gun. This movie in concept had the possibility of being really cool. Rollins did a great job of being creepy but the mess going on around him really wrecked his performance. I would say as long as you don't pay a dime to watch this movie aka wait till it hits Netflix. Then it is worth a couple hrs of your time.

The worst movie I've seen in a very, very, very long time. (And I've seen several Nic Cages ones).

The acting is very weak, the script is terrible, the premise of the story is a complete joke, but what really pulls this into the garbage- can is the low production-values.

The viewer is expected to believe that bank business (which apparently only has two employees), and is located in a crappy building with no security, in a courtyard, off a backstreet, has deposits worth tens of millions of dollars kept in safety-deposit boxes that look about as secure as a lunch-box. It just goes downhill from there.
