The Hurricane Heist
(2018)
Directed by Rob Cohen
this film stars Maggie Grace, Toby Kebbell, Ryan Kwanten and Ralph
Ineson. As a major hurricane bears down on a US Treasury department
facility a group of criminals plan to steal $600 million from it.
There is something to
the premise of this film but for it to work it would have to be based
on a novel by Alistair MacLean and directed by someone like Michael
Bay. Unfortunately what we have here is a paint by numbers effort
with a script that stumbles through a bunch of cliches and mind
numbing action sequences. Some of the effects are a bit ropey as well
and seem to have exceeded what the budget for this film would allow.
2/5
