    Probably the best heist movie of all time. Spike. Denzel. Clive. Defoe. Foster. Enough said.

    Throws you through loops. Great bank robbery via Denzel and Clive Owen.

    This is a true classic. Always fun to watch – and really rewatchable. I've seen it at least over five times already.

    Interesting concept. Execution is very weird. Weird music weird immature dialogue etc etc. movie is just not as smart as it thinks it is

    Good movie with lots of twists and turns. Not the ending you expect. leaves a few questions unanswered if you scratch at the surface a little bit. I like the movie and is an enjoyable time.

    It has been ages since I last saw this one. I remembered the main parts, and although it has aged a bit, it was still a very good rewatch of this almost 20 year old brilliant movie.

    What was a really great idea and plot for a movie then seemed to go downhill. Let me explain, how the film was meant a bank hold up plot with the robbers taking 50 odd hostages. What then happened was the cop and the robbers decide to do too odd things. I will not say what but needless it means the cop get taken off the case. However, all is not as it seems the bank robbers do not even get caught and the police do not have a crime. So what left is weird kind of plot with in plot that makes no sense. What rob a bank and not take any money. The whole things is stupid when it could have actually worked if the film producers had not tried to be too clever. Sad as it would have made a good film.
