Den of Thieves update feed
" "I am a member of a gang... Only we have badges." Den of Thieves is good old-fashioned cops and robbers, heists and shootouts. It is certainly assembled from various genre cliches, from Gerard Butler's character having marital issues (totally superfluous and gratuitous) to a Heat-style rivalry between hero and villain, but it's executed with enough flair and genuine style to elevate it above the ordinary. At a beefy 140 minutes, this is one long flick, but not exhaustively so; it takes its time"
" First Viewing Viewing Date: September 10th Via: Blu-ray Plot: A gritty crime saga which follows the lives of an elite unit of the LA County Sheriff's Dept. and the state's most successful bank robbery crew as the outlaws plan a seemingly impossible heist on the Federal Reserve Bank.

" DVD- 2hrs. 20min. First Viewing Despite the fact that it relentlessly rips from other, better crime-thrillers (most notable Heat), Den of Thieves is still an entertaining film thanks to some effective filmmaking, and a surprisingly magnetic performance by Gerard Butler. This isn't the type movie that lives or dies by the script; we know the characters, the plot, the motivations. That said, this script is too overstuffed for its own good; it's nearly two and a half hours long and only a few char"
"I guessed the ending "twist" because of casting a certain athlete in a minor role in this. But overall this was an enjoyable action film. Gerard Butler was really good. The action and heist scenes were done nicely too."
