Bill I’s Review – 3.5 out of 5

What a fun movie! Three muscle heads decide to get rich quick by robbing rich guys, and just make one dumb decision after another. Mark Wahlberg is amazing, and The Rock (Chris Johnson) almost steals the show with his Jesus-loving criminal character. Set in Miami, this could have been lifted from a Carl Hiasson or Elmore Leanord novel, instead it’s based on actual events, which the film reminds you of half-way through. This is remiscient of Goodfellas but without the organized mob or any well thought out plans. Imbeciles with new found money. Loved it!
