I had to let go at some point that this wasn't a Heist Movie and once I did that I enjoyed it.

I can see how dudes might not find it super relatable but I particularly enjoyed it because I was in NYC at the strip clubs circa 2007. That shit seems like a lifetime ago and I enjoyed how they captured the differences between NYC 2006 and 2013.

This very much felt like a companion piece for Wolf of Wall Street.

Loved all the Janet Jackson songs.

Most of all I loved that JLO just made a showcase for herself to be fucking badass.

After Out of Sight I thought she was a great actress but have never seen another glimpse of her being that sort of actress until this movie. She's doper at 50 then I thought she was at like 30.
