Featured review
This film was a good romp and a solid 7 in my opinion. It crtainly doesn't deserve some of the ludicrous scores some people have rated it on here! Well acted and plenty of action. Then again I always thought Heat was overrated (probably would give that a 7 as well). I didn't feel it was overlong and din't get bored once. Yes, there were a few plot holes, but overrall this was good entertainment and so much better than much of the absolute dross that's doing the rounds at present. Don't listen to the naysayers on here, this one is well worth your time.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaGerard Butler and his crew are loosely based on former ATF agent Jay Dobyns, who consulted on the film. Dobyns is best known for his undercover work and his willingness to infiltrate crime organizations, much like Gerard Butler's character. Dobyns makes a cameo in the film at the bar Donnie works at in LA, closing his tab at the bar.
- GoofsHigh security facilities like the Federal Reserve would not allow a guest like Donnie (or any food deliveryman) to walk around unescorted. If an employee ordered food, they would most likely have to come down to the front desk and pick it up themselves. Either that or the deliveryman would be escorted by security the entire time they are in a secure area.
