David_Brown If anyone likes fun and intelligent movies this is for you. It about Tripp Kennedy (Patrick Dempsey), who is a very neurotic person who walks into the bank to get change (a lot of change), and meets teller Kaitlin, and notices two things: Number One: She had wedding presents with her. Two: The bank was going to be robbed. Of course, he had no idea that TWO bank robberies would occur at the same time, by two very different sets of robbers. One were Rednecks with the nicknames of "Peanut Butter & Jelly" and the other were more sophisticated robbers (One was Jewish, the other British, and the last one African American). Of course, it turns out that Tripp, is a Sherlock Holmes type genius with an incredible attention to detail. Spoilers Ahead: What he figures out is besides the Robberies, there are other crimes involved, including a plan straight out of Agatha Christie's "10 Little Indians" is to knock off everyone in the bank by the top bank robber in the Country, Vicellus Drum, and no one is exactly who and what they seem (Including Kaitlin (which he lets her know about halfway through the movie)). Of course, (spoilers ahead), Tripp does end up with Kaitlin, but how he gets there,and finding out who is really Drum, and who survives and in some cases, actually thrives (besides Tripp), are what make this movie a lot of fun. 10/10 stars.
MovieSonic I can't remember why I decided to give this a go, I think it was a review on IMDb so I'll return the favour:I feel that the description of the film on IMDb is off-putting: "A man caught in the middle of two simultaneous robberies at the same bank desperately tries to protect the teller with whom he's secretly in love."That makes it sound like this is just a film about a guy trying to save a girl when it's so much more than that. To describe the plot any other way would reveal an important twist though so I can understand why the description is a bit vague.What I liked about the film was that the script was really good with realistic dialogue between the characters, it was very frequently funny and often laugh-out-loud funny (especially the security guard) and all of the actors fully committed to every scene.Whilst it's an indie film, they've done the clever thing of keeping costs down by having one location but enough action, humour and occasional explosions to keep you interested as well as a mystery element to the story which you are genuinely interested in.If you liked "Foolproof" (2003) with Ryan Reynolds then you will likely really enjoy this.There are slapstick elements, clever plot devices, and some creepy humour and although I did have to ask myself a few times 'why hasn't he killed this person/these people yet', it didn't bother me too much because by then the film had already established that it wasn't going for realism but just really fun entertainment.I would recommend watching this and give it 8/10.
spamzz its a shame that gems like this are not given any promotion, and sent straight to DVD. if it weren't for the internet and services like netflix or which ever medium chosen to find movies i would have missed out on a lot of great entertainment. and that is exactly what this movie does, it entertains.this movie was hilarious. the dialog was great, and the silly moments just pulled me into the movie even more. there were even some "holy carp" moments where i had to ask myself while laughing... did that just happen?. its like a murder mystery. like the game "who dun it" with guns and explosions, silly characters, and plot twists. all i can say is it was a fun ride. i thoroughly enjoyed this movie, and am planning on buying it to watch with friends, family, whoever.
Martijn Severens I started watching this movie with not too much expectations. But I started to enjoy it quite easily. The film isn't the most humoristic in it's genre, but it has some good jokes and good scenes. And it's filled with a lot of great, though a bit cliché, characters. It's a nice movie you should pick up sooner or later.Then the downside: halfway you start creating an idea about the plot, but afterwards the movie integrated multiple twists.. A few to many in my opinion. The ending is still a nice find and the film is a must-see. But due to the multiple plot twists creating a lot of holes, you just can't help but feel some things just don't add up in this story, I gave it an honest 6/10.Quite enjoyable movie nonetheless
