"So you want revenge. I want legacy".

I can't believe the 3.6 IMDb rating this film has as I come here to write this. You same folks gave "The Old Guard", another Netflix project, a 6.6 rating, and that one is no better or no worse than this one. Not that you can't pick out the flaws, but for action/adventure fans, there's a lot of explosions and bloodshed to go around here. That's not actually what I come to a picture like this for, but you sort of have to go with the flow.

So the working premise is that the government will soon implement what's called an API signal that will inhibit the criminal mind from committing unlawful acts. When the switch is thrown, all police authority in the country becomes moot, and the FBI remains in sole charge of maintaining law and order, such as it will be. As the date draws near, the window of opportunity for outlaws, and specifically the protagonists in this story, narrows for executing one last heist. Graham Bricke (Edgar Ramírez) is sought out by a crime kingpin's estranged son (Michael Pitt) via his sexy girlfriend (Anna Brewster), to join a convoluted scheme to rob a billion dollars in old and new money before the API signal is implemented.

Granted, this film didn't require two and a half hours in the telling, but how else would Bricke, Kevin Cash (Pitt), and Shelby Dupree (Brewster) get into and out of so many impossible situations. Even a couple of FBI guys on the take have a hand in the story, making it possible for Shelby to rescue her sister from some situation that isn't made clear. With the clock running down, there are enough double crosses to go around in order to leave one last man standing. Well, make that one last woman standing.

That API signal by the way, was described earlier by Kevin Cash, who said it was a molecular modulation of the pre-frontal cortex, which sounded to me a little like a lobotomy. Which reminded me of a line from one of my old time comic books about an interplanetary assassin named Nexus, who once said "I'd rather have a free bottle in front of me than a pre-frontal lobotomy". And as for the basic plot of the story, I do have a major reservation about the government implementing a program to void criminal behavior. I mean, how would Congress ever come up with a majority of it's members to ban what comes naturally.

Getting away with it (?)

Or purge as long as you can. I think some may have taken a page or two of this, writing about Bill Gates wanting to put chips in us and all that. But conspiracy theories aside, the movie makes overall sense with trying to minimize crime. I am not famliar with the graphic novel this is based on, so I can't compare those things for you though.

The beginning kind of sets the mood. This is over the top. Still as over the top as that seems, there is a scene that is odd to say the least. Actually being shot close range, should be the end of the discussion. But it is not - this is something that may break the movie for you. It is quite ridiculous to say the least, but it is what it is. Technically the movie works, the actors do their best for the kind of schlock it is they are in. Overall this is more than decent - it may be a bit too long, but other than that: good set pieces, great action and stunts and a decent story to hold it all together

We all make bad choices

The film is way too long. It has an interesting premise. Crime is out of control. They are going to the American Peace Initiative (API) which will send out a signal that will make it impossible to people to break the law if they know they are doing something illegal. Right before this happens our trio plan to perform a large heist of money. They have a device that will give them 30-35 minutes before they become activated. Once they score the money they will drive to Canada in a huge truck that will not be hard to locate. There is distrust within the group of three.

The film had some interesting scenes, but overall they killed the plot trying to do too much.
