Triple frontera, 三重边界, 三重国境
the whole first act of this movie is Oscar Isaac asking his friends if they got his text message :(
Chandor's not subtle about reconfiguring his black ops bro heist movie into a condemnation of American hegemony (although it's interesting that he either fails or simply doesn't have time to really tie that to narcotraffic) and its failure to take care of its soldiers. Come in expecting a bullet-riddled action film, come out with suspense procedural about just how you move -- literally -- almost three tons of cash. Hardly a gourmet meal but still a hearty and delicious one, and I'm a sucker for this kind of tactical action.
hollywood has taken The Chain - Fleetwood Mac hostage and wont let it go until we start to like ben affleck again
hrrrrnnggh catfish, i'm trying to sneak around but i'm dummy thicc and the clap from my ass cheeks keeps alerting the guards
High tension bolstered by sleek camerawork and incredible sound — think Sicario, but greener. And rainier. And a lot more gunfights (all superb, at that).
We’re treated to thicc Affleck who’s in top form, delivering a morally complex character that’s surprisingly good; Oscar Isaac, suave and badass as all hell, sporting a sprint and demeanour that would make Tom Cruise think twice. Oscar as an action lead never crossed my mind but he’s clearly a natural.
It’s a ton of seriously well-made fun. Rallying the old gang for one last job has been done to death but rarely by a talent like Chandor, and very seldom with a cast of this dramatic range.
starts out as a pretty typical dadcore shit; the drunk, divorced hunks in jeans and belts and digital watches going "sir, SIR, i have tactically ascertained the op" to metallica's for whom the bell tolls, but about an hour in, after they've done the war crimes and stolen the absurd amount of cash from some latin american warlord, the film transitions to a borderline slapstick comedy as they try and figure out the physical process of moving it back home. a bit too sincere and action-heavy imo (every time a chase/shootout happened i kinda wished this would go Southern Comfort horror instead) and i think the strained emotions are a bit out of these performers' league but honestly it almost…
It's not too late to go home.
- MONEY.
- A bit tense.
- Greedy.
- The money taking scene is the best, in my opinion it's very stressful.
- With the amazing camera movement, this film has become very good to watch for those who like films that show tension.
- The cinematography is pretty good. there are some amazing ones.
- The whole cast is great.
- Oscar Isaac was my favorite. he was the one who made me want to watch this film.
- Pedro Pascal!!
- Ben Affleck appearance was good enough.
- To be honest I really want to watch this on the big screen.
- Once again, Oscar Isaac!!!! Ahh
“Greed, for lack of a better word, is bad.”
A totally satisfying nuts-and-bolts thriller that belongs on a continuum with Phil Karlson and Don Siegel B-flicks. Now Netflix is making these things, with huge movie stars and massive piles of money. Hard to complain about that. (Also, this is the best Affleck has been in anything in... many years?)
real bold of netflix to assume that I can tell charlie hunnam and garrett hedlund apart
59/100
A.V. Club review. Starts out familiar almost to the point of being generic, but the second half kinda won me over by yoking the characters' greed to purely logistical matters—namely, the sheer difficulty of moving the amount of money they find. It's as if the musket-loading scene in Meek's Cutoff were a heist movie.
This movie is either for the people who think that IHOP giving veterans free pancakes one day a year is fair, or the people that look at veterans getting free pancakes at IHOP one day a year and go, “Man, you know what I’d do if I were them?”
Ich finde den Film lächerlich übertrieben. Der Herr des Hauses ist gefährlich und verlässt nie sein Anwesen. Alle Kriegsveteranen-Einbrecher wissen das. Keiner weiß wo er steckt. Keiner hält mit seinem Sturmgewehr im Raum Wache, nein, alle packen gleichzeitig das Geld in die Taschen. Solche Vollidioten werden in keinem Land der Welt eine Soldaten-Ausbildung bestehen. Geld ist scheiße, und es lässt uns Dinge tun, die unserer Umwelt schaden. Der Film wollte es wohl rüber bringen, aber die Art und Weise stört mich.
Ein Stern für die Schießerei am Berg.
Legitimately one of the best ensemble cast action thrillers of the past decade. Can't remember the last time I watched an action movie and every single scene had me completely engaged. The cinematography and direction are beyond top notch and the action is staged very well. The cast is stacked and everyone gets their chance to shine, not to mention theres surprises to be had with this one and my jaw was on the floor in one scene. Can't praise this one enough. Have not gripes or issues with it and the fact this wasn't one of Netflix's most popular movies in their catalog is criminal.
Closer to a 10 than an 8.
2 & 1/2 hours of me not being able to tell Charlie Hunnam and Garrett Hedlund apart while several things exploded
