Similar to The Town, both has the plot of robbing the bank, but I prefer Takers. Its less serious and really entertaining with some seemingly real stuns. Around of applause to Chris Brown who did an athletic sprint all the way from the train station passed many obstacles with the need to jump, slide, push people, crash windows and hide, total was a good whole 4 to 7 minutes of movie run time of sprinting and chasing. It seems to end at some point in the middle but yet, no, he dodge and went on running, inviting the chase to carry on. That was really impressive. *( The plot impresses the audience right from the beginning where the robbers, all except T.I robbed the bank. One of them, dressed as a security guard, seduced an incoming police helicopter to land on the bank's rooftop and pointed the gun at the exiting police officers from the helicopter. Hijack the helicopter for the escaping robbers to make their escape.)*T.I who just released from prison make a deal with the Russians. T.I also make business with this group of bank robbers and they all trusted him. Watch it to find out how two fire engines-like-trucks containing money get mistimed in being blown and end up at the bottom of the blown off ground. *(Chinese-like sound effects were used when each of the group members died. All survived except 2. Its the first time I'm seeing such way of expression in the movies. I guess the director is trying to emphasize on how such jobs, though seemed lucrative but rather wasteful in the end. But two of the members were finished off in a quick way in a sense that a simple exposing themselves to gun shot knowing that whatever they're using to fire cannot beat whatever they expect to face. T.I was killed in the end.)
Rating: 4/5.
