edohanclasen The plot and cast of Triple 9 held much potential but did not deliver as expected. The film follows a group of highly skilled criminals that execute action packed heists. The major revelation is that two of these criminals are policemen. Apart from that, the story does not hold much suspense and revelation. Michael Atwood (Chiwetel Ejiofor) is forced by Irina Vlaslov (Kate Winslet), a criminal kingpin, to do these jobs by threatening Atwood with the safety of his son (not something new). The story unravels as they plan the 'final' heist where, as expected, everything goes wrong. There is some parts of the film which I enjoyed. However, with such an all-star cast, it did not live up to the expectation.

Michael Ledo A group of former special ops lead by a crooked cop work for the "Russian Kosher-nostra" the Russian Jewish mafia in Atlanta. After pulling one heist, they are tasked with a second one where they would need a lot of time. They opt to create a diversion by killing a cop, creating a 999 call. This would give them the time.While we get that plan early, it isn't executed until late in the film. What the bad guys are up against is a salty Woody Harrelson detective with paid informants and quite the wordsmith. Outside of the Harrelson character, the film was a run of the mill crime drama/thriller.Guide: F-words. No sex or nudity.

weetiger3 I'm a fan of John Hillcoat (especially the criminally underrated "Lawless") so I had to check this one out. It's a great premise, and reminded me in some ways of Tarantino and "Reservoir Dogs" with a gritty and ultra-violent realism. If you are a fan of action/crime then you'll enjoy this

cshine18 It seems I didn't hate this movie as much as some of the other reviewers, but it's definitely a far cry from where it should have been. The acting is still great, but with such an amazing ensemble of actors, you naturally come to expect so much more. It's not the worst movie ever made, just a let down with all the potential it had.
