Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA more interesting aspect of the training for Richard Madden was learning how to pickpocket. Working with a consultant named, appropriately, "Keith the Thief", Madden learned sleight of hands tricks and distraction techniques. Madden said: "We wanted some of the maneuvers he pulls to be a bit flamboyant so that it reflects Michael's cockiness at his own ability. James was very keen to make sure that the stealing didn't appear to be like magic, but that it seemed realistic. So if anyone watching the film on DVD pauses and watches it in slow-motion to check it's really me doing it, I did actually do it!".
- GoofsWhen the main character leaves the home of the receiver of the stolen goods he spots the sniper because of the laser pointer. No sniper would ever use a laser pointer.
- Quotes
Michael Mason: [crying] I didn't know what was in that bag.
Sean Briar: But you ran and you made me chase you, and *innocent people do not run*.
Michael Mason: *You* were coming after me. Have you *seen* yourself?

Featured review
A great thriller
Surprised this isn't at least in the 7's on here. Elba is excellent, no cheesy crap Bond esque love interests. Just a proper thriller with some great twists and decent action sequences. Some comical moments in a non Marvel universe cheesy way.
Nothing incredibly new with the plot, but it does keep you interested for the duration. The end hints at a sequel, which could be interesting.
If you like a good action / thriller - this is the best I've seen in a long while. Not quite as good as the old Bournes, but certainly better than recent Bonds.
