Locked up for a minor crime, 19 year old JR quickly learns the harsh realities of prison life. Protection, if you can get it, is paramount. JR soon finds himself under the watchful eye of Australia's most notorious criminal, Brendan Lynch. But protection comes at a price. Lynch and his crew have plans for their young protegee. Upon release, JR must help secure Lynch's freedom, staging a daring prison break. As a reward, he's invited to join the crew as they plan a gold heist that promises to deliver millions. However, as things start to go wrong, a deadly game of cat and mouse ensues. JR finds himself unsure of whom he can trust and on a collision course with his former mentor. Written by Anonymous
This is a 'heist' movie with a fairly standard story and the usual range of characters and events.
One little difference is that it is set in Australia.
But one large difference is the pacing of the movie. It never gets bogged down and it never goes OTT - so we don't see people flying through the air, in slow motion, shooting two guns at once.
The acting is of a level where it well represents the sort of randomness found in such characters as well as offering up a hero for the audience to follow.
If you want a fun action movie with enough of a story to follow and which moves along and keeps the interest up - this one is for you, my son.
