What it is, though, is a delightfully daft, couple of hours of leave your brain at home and have fun. Cohen, though slightly let down by disappointing CGI, brings us a heist movie the likes of which any other director would probably have looked at the script and wondered if the writers were using too much prescription medication. What he does bring us is a silly B movie, with laughs and thrills a plenty. The actors certainly chew their scenes with relish, yes I'm looking at you Mr Cross, however with an enthusiasm that rubs of and delivers plenty of fun for your buck. He even gives MS Grace a slightly more interesting character than the shovelling, spoilt brat she has been lumbered with this past few years. See it on a Friday night after a couple beers and hopefully you'll leave smiling at how preposterous it all is but made by folks who didn't care and just wanted to entertain. On that level, it definitely works.… Expand

Like the title suggests, this is a hybrid of disaster flick with a hi-tech caper. A group stages the robbery of a Federal money facility in Alabama under cover of a major storm.

A group stages the robbery of a Federal money facility in Alabama under cover of a major storm. It's up the an ATF agent and 2 men she enlists to save the day (and drive those semis for the final confrontation). While there are ridiculous aspects about this whole thing, it's got sufficient action and weather-related calamity to keep it entertaining in a purely popcorn mode.… Expand

Treasury agent Casey Corbyn is ordered by fellow employee Randy Moreno to summon Breeze, who now works as a handyman, and whose brother Will is a meteorologist, to fix the generator at a cash storage facility. While she is out of the facility, rogue Treasury agents, led by Connor Perkins, infiltrate the facility and hold employee Moreno hostage. Their plan is to steal $600 million, and Perkins enlists computer hackers, Sasha and Frears, to crack the code of the vault. Failing to decrypt it, Perkins realizes that Corbyn may have changed it, so he has his men find her...

The movie is made by the producers of the highly acclaimed 'The Fast and Furious' series. Naturally I have relatively high expectation going into this. The first thing that caught my attention is the top notch voice acting, nothing too cheesy or over the top. This film focuses heavily on action which scenes are flawlessly complemented by immersive background music. It does an excellent job at that. Also, the breath taking disaster scenes plus the well choreographed actions sequences make it double the fun. However... this movie falls heavily short on the story/plot aspect, it is just too simple and predictable, and wasted away the potential for the making of a great film, evidenced by the poor box office performance.… Expand
