I have never done cocaine, but this film is what I imagine it must be like. An overwhelming and messy but still very entertaining experience, if you enjoy Michael Bay you are sure to enjoy this one!

Utter drivel courtesy of Michael Bay.
Its a 2.5hr commercial for Dodge, filmed like a music video using a drone. Life is to short for trash like this.

Not a fan of Michael Bay, but "Ambulance" was able to "aid" his career by a smidge with enough swathes to make the film reception proof of backlash in the slightest but the incohesive characters left the function disemboweled.

The sequences are preposterous, and the people involved knows that. At least Gyllenhaal does, because he overacts in a way that's self aware. Often scenes are laughable. Is it intentional?

Why is noone talking about the fact that this entire situation could have been avoided if the United States had Universal Healthcare?!?

Horrible movie. It’s like the screenplay was written on a napkin by a monkey with half a crayon.

This one keeps lots of his spectacular sensibilities, but in a more limited environment. Jake Gyllenhaal plays a gruff, seasoned bank robber who recruits his "brother" (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) to be the getaway driver for his latest heist. Natch, things go horribly wrong and they end up in the titular vehicle with a wounded police officer and an EMT. After the fast-paced robbery and ensuing shootout, the rest of the film is one long chase with impressive stunts and dozens of cars crashing. Bay's love for fast, fluid camerawork has amped up with his dizzying drone shots. Of course, the editing keeps the action on its toes and Gyllenhaal adds a few comic asides. If you can ignore the insane absurdity of the whole premise, this is an over-the-top wild ride.… Expand

+Awesome thrill ride, no let up in the pacing and direction, a welcome return to form for Bay if familiar territory
+Stellar performances by the 2 leads, especially Jake G

A fun time all around.

Right from the get go there are signs of trouble when Jake Gyllenhaal's character keeps talking about his "plan" when it turns out to not be so much a plan but a loose general idea and it basically sets the tone for the rest of the movie. It is definitely a turn your brain off to even remotely enjoy it kind of movie.

The only thing good about this movie is a pretty little ambulance girl. It's sad, boring, and ugly. The story is moronic. Characters are diverse. Standard Hollywood diarrhea.

If that's you, knock yourself out for 136 minutes. You'll feel like you spent a week in the Ukraine war on the ground, as a civilian, facing gunfire from both sides. Matt Belloni asked a question on this. If Ambulance did not break into double digit millions on its US opening weekend (it did not) could this be the end of the Bay mystique (outside of the Transformers franchise)? Yup, it seems.
I believe if you are tired of boys with toys fighting unnecessary real wars, you are also tired of boys with toys fighting fake, pointless wars on screen.
What surprised me was how unnecessarily long it is. Ten minutes of long shots of cars driving and screeching could easily have been cut out. Establishing shots wern't needed; it takes place within two square miles. If Bay was asking audiences, "Do you still like violent, amoral shoot-em-ups with no learning and few redeeming aspects?" I believe the answer is, "No, we've had enuf." Redeeming aspects? Eiza Gonzalez, she plays this role like Michelle Rodriguez and does indeed "hold the movie together from the back seat."… Expand

When you see Michael Bay (“Transformer” series, “Pearl Harbor,” “Armageddon”) listed as director in the opening credits, you know what you’re going to get: fast and energetic camera movement, fast editing and an epic sense of visual scale.When you see Michael Bay (“Transformer” series, “Pearl Harbor,” “Armageddon”) listed as director in the opening credits, you know what you’re going to get: fast and energetic camera movement, fast editing and an epic sense of visual scale. It’s an approach to filmmaking that can cause sensory overload. They call it “Bayhem” for a reason. Visually, “Ambulance” lives up to this expectation.

What’s typically lacking from a Michael Bay film is intricate plotting – okay, average plotting. What’s missing here is even the crumbs of a compelling narrative. In the course of a bank robbery, two of the robbers hijack an ambulance to make their escape. They drive around Los Angeles pretty indiscriminately for the 2:16 running time of this steaming mess. Bayhem ensues. Eventually the ambulance stops. Roll closing credits.

Danny Sharp (Jake Gyllenhaal - “Brokeback Mountain,” “Nightcrawler”) and Will Sharp (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II - “Matrix Resurrections,” “Aquaman”) are brothers. They are racially different, but brothers. We’re told repeatedly that they are a “real family.” Because Danny is a remorseless psychopath, their intricate family dynamics are slightly unreliable. Will needs money for his wife’s “experimental surgery. Except insurance doesn’t cover experimental surgery because, they tell me, it’s experimental.” Danny offers to help by bringing Will into his latest heist. Who could have predicted that, on the day of the planned robbery, they’re one man short? And now that Will is part of this clueless band of merry men, what could possibly go wrong?

EMT Cam Thompson (Eiza Gonzalez – “Baby Driver,” “I Care a Lot”) partially redeems this enterprise. She’s compelling and the camera loves her. She’s an effective partial antidote to the testosterone-infused craziness going on around her. On the other hand, she’s also required to perform abdominal surgery in a moving ambulance while being coached by two surgeons on a golf course. After that, the action becomes less plausible.

The mystery is why Jake Gyllenhaal aligned himself with this project. Apparently, he wanted to demonstrate his public devotion to the Nicholas Cage School of Manic Acting. That is to say, Gyllenhaal’s character yells at lot. At important moments, as a context clue, he yells a lot louder.

“Ambulance” is best summarized by a line embedded in an endless stream of wisecracks among the pursuing cops: “… it’s a very expensive car chase right now.” “Ambulance” is based on the 2005 Danish film “Ambulancen,” which had a streamlined running time of 1:19. After watching this American version, I’d have happily watched the film in Danish with no subtitles to regain the hour lost forever from my life.… Expand

I very much enjoy explosions and car chases and this movie does that pretty much flawlessly. It's your typical Bay film so if you don't like any of his other exciting action packed films, then you probably won't like this one either. It even has a couple of gnarly gross scenes with a ruptured spleen and half of a guy's body and legs distorted in a grizzly way! I was surprised at that. There is plenty of violence and action and fireworks here to impress any fast paced action fan.

Oh, and the acting is pretty good, too. I've seen a lot, LOT worse. Unfortunately people who have the most ridiculous standards in movies will give any decent movie a 0 for no reason. Just ignore the impossibly low scores. Those types of people even give the best movies 0's just out of spite. This one is easily a 7-9 range for most people.… Expand

Fans of loud Bayhem will get their kicks, and if this was a nonsense 90 minutes I’d likely have enjoyed it more. But at 130, it gets repetitive and wears out its welcome before arriving at its destination.
