A very fast paced entertaining movie.Plot a little confusing but it all came together at the end. Acting was good and Ibis is a new favorite for me.I am hoping for a sequel .

A decent wheels-within-wheels plot is subverted by a terrible screenplay and truly ghastly dialogue. The French malfrats and flics corrompus are the only convincing actors in the lot, although Richard Madden tries to work with the cards he…
Bond, James Bond? Not really. But there are elements. Plenty action, lots of noise, guns blasting, bomb threats, chases, cars, and on foot, if this is your thing, this film delivers.

I enjoyed this fast paced film. Idris Elba fulfills the role, in my opinion. Has some surprises at the end. Takes place in Paris, France. I enjoyed the supporting cast. The story has been told quite a few times before, but I still enjoyed…

Well acted and directed. Visually, it's fine. But the script is very weak: Ham-fisted dialogue, by-the-numbers cop-and-con team up. If you haven't seen something in this movie countless times before, you'll see things coming. It's…

I really liked this action packed fast paced drama with the sexy Idris Elba and the actor who I believed played Robb Stark in the Game of Thrones show.

Decent, if rather cliche, action/adventure movie with a rogue cia agent and redeemable thief. Nicely intriguing plot, but the lack of character development and rather weak ending spoils what would otherwise be a solid movie. Worth watching…

Lone wolf Briar and a genius pickpocket teamed up against some powerful bad guys in Paris made a good premise though with many plot holes that viewers had little chance to reflect on till the end; a film to watch without reading the…

Let's be honest. If it hadn't been Idris Elba, I'd have given it only 4 1/2 stars. It looks like this might have been planned as a franchise, and I hope it becomes one. Lots of intrigue, lots of twists and turns, good chemistry between…
