I was one of the many who thought this was going to be a mediocre-whatever throwaway heist film, but it thankfully proved me wrong.

Now, I can see certain similarities to "HEAT" but it's not a complete copy like some reviewers say it is. It has its own unique plot in a way - not groundbreaking obviously but not every film can or even needs to be completely original. Plus, it has a nice little twist at the end that I like, and one that sets up a potential sequel.

If you like 'Heist Films' or even crime-thrillers in general, then definitely watch this one.

Sadly, this movie never really received the publicity it deserved. It even struggles to have a cult status (no pun intended).

I had only heard of this movie because of a review video on YouTube... otherwise I would have never even heard of it.

When I watched it, it was on Netflix but that was over a year ago and I don't have Netflix anymore, so it may not still be available. But if it is, PUT IT ON YOUR LIST!

Without spoilers or repeating the synopsis - it's a simple movie with a simple premise, executed very VERY well. Definitely give it a watch, you'll never forget it and surely will recommend it to others.

After watching a review video about this movie from a Youtuber (Pieces of Work) - I decided to give it a watch BUT It's not really available anywhere - at least not in the U.S. That's a problem a fair amount of Asian distributing companies have, they don't make their films easily available to buy or even rent on international websites like iTunes or Vudu. It's not even available on Amazon... Regardless, I finally 'found it' and watched it. And this is a pretty darn good movie. In my opinion it had a bit of a slow-ish start, but once you get introduced to the main "villain" (even though most would consider him a good guy) and his teammates the story really picks up and keeps you engaged. Most people, especially millennials, will be able to connect with the main characters or at least understand him/them. There's a good story here with an important message; one that transcends nationalities, borders, colors. Because this film isn't easily accessible I feel as though that's a reason it even struggles to have a cult following, BUT if the studio that produced/distributed it were to allow it to be available on iTunes, Vudu, or even Netflix then for sure this movie would get the attention and praise it deserves.
