Durante uma pena de seis meses numa prisão australiana, o jovem criminoso JR (Brenton Thwaites) conhece o esperto e enigmático Brendan Lynch (Ewan McGregor). Em troca de protecção, JR aceita ajudar Brendan a escapar, juntando-se ao influente Sam Lennox (Jacek Koman) para orquestrar uma arrojada fuga, que coloca em liberdade Brendan e os companheiros de prisão Sterlo (Matt Nable) e Merv (Eddie Baroo).

I was surprised to see an Australian director cast a Scot and a Swede for the main parts. All the while he had plenty to choose from in his home Australia and he wouldn’t have to go this far beyond seas, oceans, and seven hills. But okay… I will accept it. It is true that the actors are on the positive side of what this movie can offer. Ewan McGregor, Alicia Vikander, and Brenton Thwaites really did wonders here. But they did wonders while acting out a story that is, unfortunately, an average modern-day gangster movie. It tells a simple story in a too simple way. It doesn’t explain why a young lad who stole a Twix somewhere ended up with the worst murderers of Australia. It also doesn’t explain why the same lad was so bewitched by one goon. And the overly happy finale also didn’t really help. Considering how well the movie was shot, the story is way too easy and simple. Based on this, every other punk from a bus stop and smelling of paper-box wine and stale beer would become a robber.

The Australians rocked in 2014 and this action film can also be considered a great success. Nicely conceived, engaging, entertaining with likeable actors, fine action and a cool final twist, all underlined by a solid pace. So for me, a big enthusiasm and I even hesitated to watch the film.

Time for chess, Ladies and Gentlemen! If I don’t have time for a game of chess, or even to play GTA, why not to just watch? Three cool action scenes, excellent McGregor in a slightly untraditional role and mainly good, honest directing work – Avery is walking in Mann’s footsteps. I would just like to know how to change golden bricks into classic bank notes. Put him in the freezer.

A modest crime genre film, where some elements (precise appearance and portrayal of villains, work with action and weapons) are on the verge of perfection and Michael Mann had to, if not advise, at least grunt contentedly at the screening. But some passages are too long and the story is not revelatory, with lots of secondary characters we know nothing about and never will. Everything is about the three main characters and the world around them seems to be mostly non-existent. Definitely a great piece of work for Australia, but there's still a lot to tweak.

I get that I won't remember the film after some time, but right after watching it, I felt that some of the characters were quite intriguing, that it was appropriately gritty, and in the end, it turned out somewhat fairy-tale-like, which contrasts nicely with what I’d seen up to that point. Ewan McGregor was great in this role as well, which surprised me.
