a5c7b9f00b A group of bank robbers find their multi-million dollar plan interrupted by a hard-boiled detective. A seasoned team of bank robbers, including Gordon Jennings (Idris Elba), John Rahway (Paul Walker), A.J. (Hayden Christensen), and brothers Jake (Michael Ealy) and Jesse (Chris Brown) Attica successfully complete their latest heist and lead a life of luxury while planning their next job. When Ghost (Tip T.I. Harris), a former member of their team, is released from prison he convinces the group to strike an armored car carrying $20 million. As the "takers" carefully plot their strategy and draw nearer to exacting the grand heist, a reckless police officer (Matt Dillon) inches closer to apprehending the criminals. Although the film has many similarities as the film "Armoured", who Matt Dillon also starred in, this film was much better. The film "Takers" has more of a plot than just simply trying to do a robbery of armoured vehicles, which "Armoured" was all about.<br/><br/>This film has much more going for it, more action and simply one with a better story. I wasn't too keen on a couple of the black guys who were trying to act "all big" and hard, it didn't fool me at all and thought their characters were rather annoying to watch, but other than that the film was great. The ending however was pretty bad. I expected a little more. Well , I just finished watching this.Not as bad as expected.On first look the plot looked very similar to the title I mentioned before.But after the first few minutes it went by a different direction. I think they put more action in , but the ideas and the tricks of the robberies were all seen before. I didn't expect much from Paul Walker or Hayden Christensen , however Matt Dillon did a great job playing the cop who lives for his job.Zoe Saldana played the eye candy. It was pretty much predictable , and the shooting scenes at the end were quite unrealistic , but on the other hand it was fast-paced with intense action .The ending was a little surprising , it left me with the feeling of imperfection. Bottom line, if you looking for some Saturday night movie with your friends or girlfriend , go for it it won't disappoint as a quick action treat. Did I mention the dialogue? Well, really the armored car driver put it best when he said, "We're in trouble here…" No joke.
