5 Against the House Ratings & Reviews
Mister Arn
February 8, 2025
This is not really a crime drama, however it doesn't commit to anything. It seems like the film wants to be about damaged men returning from war, but it just uses this aspect as an excuse so we can still like the Brain Keith charterer. This is a well made movie, that lacked the commitment to be great.

Michael E. Grost
Strange caper film with odd touches in character and setting.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Under Karlson's sharp direction, it becomes easy to forget that this heist for fun plot-line was a crackpot idea and highly unlikely to happen in real life.
