Dumb movie. Wooden acting from all but a few. Good fights. But if you view it as the comedy I think they intended - Smokin' Aces on a shoestring budget - it can be more entertaining than many apparently thought. And let's not overlook the performance by the suitcase, which proved to be an ideal Macguffin. Too bad there are no awards for that category. As to the rest of the cast not named Dern or Turturro, don't bother learning a lot of names. You won't be seeing most of them speaking in other films very often.
I checked this film out on a whim and it was a real treat. It's not the greatest movie of all time but it is for sure one of the best low budget films I've seen in awhile.
The story is very simple but that's also what makes it fun as it chooses a more stylistic approach over a heavy concept. It's less of a morality tale and more of a roller coaster ride, driving you from one scene to the next at break neck speed. Its characters are over the top and intriguing.
Speaking of characters the cast does a great job of bringing them to life. While some performances are definitely stronger than others, the ones that work really work. The stand out for me was the hacker, Auggie played by Jack Griffo. His wit and comedic timing stole every scene he was in. All the characters managed to pull me in and made me care about this over the top world that the filmmakers created.
The fights and the effects were extremely well done, especially for a film of this level. There were areas where you could tell they pushed the limits of their budget but nothing was so off that it took me out of the experience.
Overall it was a fun watch that kept me entertained as long as you're okay with a more "style over substance" type of film. If you're a fan of action and zany characters this give this a shot.

Seriously, who gave this 6.8 stars? Did the person watch the movie at all? Very poor acting and predictable scenes. Don't waste your time.
Only reason I watched this was of Bruce Dern. IMDB gives a 7.9 rating must watch. Worst movie ever!! No plot, no acting, no nothing. Nothing in this movie is worth watching. Stupid, no action and fake moves. Main actor, and all other actors showed no talent. Big regrets for watching this flick. Doesn't even rate a "B" class. Who the hell gives it such a high rating? Sick!
If you've ever wanted to see Cenk Uygur pretend to be an ex-marine super assassin, this is the movie for you.
The fights are unconvincing, the fight sequences have many obvious plot gaps the size of Alaska (you literally see a guy cover a live grenade with his hat and the only thing to get shredded is his pants).
It wants to be Tarantino, but ends up an inept, poor copy of the genre. Entirely unrealistic, but not in the good Tarantino way, generic and bland. And the main protagonist... sorry, was Danny DeVito unavailable?

Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsOfficer Burke shoots the other cops from the backseat of Dobbs' unmarked Crown Victoria and then opens the door from the inside. Rear doors of a patrol car can't be opened from the inside.
An unmarked police car is, by definition, not a patrol car. Often, confiscated cars from the impound are used, with regularly functioning rear door locks.
