Heat by way of monster energy drink. a total dirtbag blast. has all the toxic machismo and tech fetish you could ask for with an extra dose of grease stains and pulp. my man gerry b was born to play this violent, drunken, divorced gorilla cop "big nick" who spends every waking moment stuffing his face with cheap food in a hazy, strip club melancholy. absolute unit. the climactic on-ramp shootout is as loud and sweaty as they come. is this what love is?
Redoing the De Niro / Pacino meetup from HEAT but instead of Kate Mantilini it's a shitty teppanyaki joint in Torrance kind of sums up this wonderful piece of junk food that you should look forward to watching on TNT approximately one million times. Gerry Butler staring off into the middle distance like a real fiend for mojitos.
By the opening scene I knew I was going to love this movie, by the time Gerard Bulter rolls up to his house after cheating on his wife while listening to Everlast's "What It's Like", I knew I would think about it for the rest of my life. A modern classic.

Groaned at the 2 hour 20 minute run-time, originally, but I was thoroughly invested, not only with Gerald Butler's wacko, muscle-built intensity, but with the crispness of the location-work, the clarity of the action, and the specific character details that make Den of Thieves a full-size meal and not just some tasty leftovers. Shout out to Cliff Martinez for going all-in on the score, as expected.

A lot of fun. I don't really get why they make Gerard Butler drive around for half the movie. I guess it's LA so that's what people do all day. Clever in the way that someone who writes screenplays in their spare time and has a YouTube channel might be. If an action movie has a rapper in it then it's probably going to be worth watching. A lot of tacticool stuff in it that made me want a pistol although I'm a man of peace so probably will never get one.
big nick’s dirtbag paradise. the monster energy drink fuelled, atlanta shot, filthy as hell heat remake of your goddamn dreams. in between the detailing of modern masculinity, the instability of our protagonist and the killer heist sequences, we’re filled with strip club melancholy and gazing at the sunrise on a desolate beach, the languid runtime lets the emptiness sink in further, if we remain in this state, we are destined for a lifetime in oblivion, of cheap beer and meaningless gunshots. both the most fun movie of the year and one of the more reflective, if you sink your teeth into it. plus there hasn’t been a better score this year, and gerry butler gets fucking tanked and scares the shit out of middle class white people, movie has it all.
Felt comfortable giving this a pass when it came out—Gerard Butler, middling reviews, generic-sounding title/premise, et al—but it just kept surfacing so much in online conversation that I thought I'd check it out. Basically, it's a less-good Heat combined with a less-good Ocean's Eleven combined with an over-cranked Butler performance that's like a grumblier, edgier version of the characters Michael Douglas used to play in '90s thrillers. All that said, it's solid, well-crafted, satisfying. I get why people like it.
Pablo Schreiber is
absolutely fucking
phenomenal in this --
way way, better film
than I was expecting...
Cliff on the score, too<3
A total B-Movie barnburner, obviously going for some sort of Redbox HEAT and totally getting there. Butler is a gift, eating donuts off the ground at crime scenes and confronting his adversaries at shitty Korean BBQ joints instead of iconic LA eateries. But Christian Gudegast also captures it all with a steady assured hand that’s light years more mature than this sort of junk deserves (and those shoot outs are deafening!). Shut the rest of January ‘18 down, this one’s got it in the bag.
