watched it last night with my brother and his wife and we were all dying at how bad the dialogue and pacing of this movie was
way to make me not give a shit about any of the characters, even though i'm a fan of most of the actors
the acting felt like they were just reading a script. no character building at all. how did they pull off the heist so (relatively) easily? it was so stupid. Lorea is just hiding in his safe the whole time and gets popped in a second after opening the door? why should I even give a damn about Lorea - all he did was scowl at the snitch/accountant girl. he looked like your average street thug extra in any generic drug movie.
and all that unnecessary talking. like shut the fuck up and rob the place. they talked and narrated literally everything they were doing while tearing the walls apart. i was just hoping the noise would attract a nosy maid who somehow went undetected and she launched a grenade into the room.
then the whole scene with the helicopter and saying the word "Andes" like 100 times. YES we know you are not gonna make it over the Andes. shut the fuck up about it.
oh and the entire time on the mountain, my sister-in-law was like "why dont they just bury the money somewhere and come back in like 3 years when shit dies down and pick it up? i'm sure they can wait 3 years for a $200 million payout." and then the very last scene, Charlie Hunnam's character just happens to hand off a piece of paper to the piece of shit Oscar Isaac character that has the coordinates on it and he disappears into the crowd. really? REALLY? goddamn.
