Takers

A notorious group of bank robbers, known as the 'Takers', discover their latest heist is an inside job, orchestrated by a former member seeking revenge. As they try to uncover the truth and clear their names, they become the target of a relentless detective determined to bring them down.

Takers received mixed to negative reviews from critics, who largely criticized its derivative plot and lack of originality, though some praised the action sequences and the performances of its lead actors.

• The film relies heavily on stylish action and ensemble cast charisma to mask a predictable and uninspired plot.

• While visually slick and featuring some decent chase sequences, 'Takers' fails to offer anything new to the heist genre.

• Performances, particularly from Elba and Dillon, provide some appeal, but can't elevate the formulaic narrative.

Google audience: Audience reviews indicate a general satisfaction with the action-packed nature of the film and the performances of the cast, although many felt the story was unoriginal and predictable.

The car chase scene involving the Aston Martin DB9 was inspired by a similar sequence in the 1998 film 'Ronin'.
