Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
RavenGlamDVDCollector Plot holes? Of course there are plot holes galore. You could drive TWO of those cash-carrying security armored trucks side by side through the unexplained gaps in this little flick's story- line. But I didn't buy it to experience the thrills of some superlatively- filmed teen bank robbery. No, I collect movies starring pretty girls, and I went from a 90210 guest star (Caitlin Thompson) to WALKING THE HALLS, and that DVD had this one's trailer, and I took one look, Just One Look, at this pretty squirrel fox who plays the female lead, and I thought "good golly jeepers that kid looks just like Jennie Garth!" which brought the circle back to BEVERLY HILLS 90210. Now, those were the heady days, I was so mesmerized by that one back then, And This, This Is Like Having Jennie Garth Re- Born! So, I am just sitting here, staring wistfully at this pretty actress, this wonderful beautiful young girl, and am I gonna complain about plot holes? Nope. Aw. The script takes on too much. Actually, I should say the story-line takes on too much. The creators thought about having pretty girls be the robbers, but they all (except one scapegoat) had to be innocent... and for a basically small project with limitations this causes immense stretching of belief. Cassi and her kidnapped by terrorists Dad. Too much. Way too much. I mean, my brain is turned to much by the beauty on-screen, but shucks, there are so many complications.Like, this junior bank official can sit there with freaking hot evidence and download a print-out unseen unquestioned? That kind of evidence, the FBI (or whoever) would have taken hold of immediately, as considerable cash is involved. Also, she rushes off, and later on, the police ask, where is she? D- uh, I mean, like, I am mesmerized by the blonde kid, but this TV movie really falters about within a few minutes.Notice the bloodless fatal gunshots.And Abbie is screwed big-time, as, like another reviewer has already pointed out, back home lies two (unexplained) dead bodies. So that little arrangement with Agent Mendoza is pointless. Like the movie.But complain? Man! Me? Gawd, if Abbie Cobb presented the bleeding weather forecast on telly, I'd damn well tune in.
mlapetite Had time to kill and wasn't very interested in Game 1 of the World Series, not a fan of either team, anyway back to my review. I was surprised by the start of the movie and how it was moving quite long and getting me more and more interested on how it would end. Very disappointed on the ending. First off, Agent Mendoza probably got jailtime for helping not only a bank robber but a murderer and would have have been joined by the girls and probably the Mom as well.The ending should have been that Cassie was able to get the rest of the money from Nick and Marie, they ended up at the exchange and got into a shooting match with the Mexicans and ended up killing each other. It could have then been a deal gone wrong with Nick and the Mexicans. Then have the Mom put the bracelet on Marie's wrist. Cassie could have stated that Nick and Marie "kidnapped" her father and as a way to force her to her a way to rob the bank.
luvkylie003 Well after seeing a lot of 10-star movies lately because of Oscar season, it felt weird seeing one of these movies. but of course this isn't meant to be some mind-blowing thing. Saw it at a party with some friends, didn't think I was going to like it. But it starts off pretty good and teenage girls robbing banks -- hey there's a lot worse, less interesting stuff out there.Acting wasn't too bad. lots of cheesy lines, but I guess you can say a couple of the actresses made lemonade out of lemons. I think overall, if you're young and looking for a little popcorn flick, this is a good choice. its not boring, has an interesting plot, and the girls are pretty of course.
Spear Seven Good acting, bad script.The acting is particularly good considering the terrible script. It must be hard to read stupid lines. It really takes some skill to keep a straight face as they do.The FBI defends the guard who shot at a moving vehicle with a hostage. Is this a stupid attempt at gun control politics?I can almost hear the producers, "crap script - but young girls robbing a bank may get enough viewers to turn a profit." Did the director read the script first? He must be desperate for work!There's not much more to say about this movie.
