Armored (2009)

Directed by Nimrod Antal
Starred Matt Dillon, Jean Reno, Laurence Fishburne, Amaury Nolasco, Fred Ward, Milo Ventimiglia, Columbus Short...
2009, United States, English

Between a heist movie and a panic room. A good mixture. It is pretty satisfying especially for heist fans, who look for action and thriller. A thriller can almost qualify for a psychological thriller. Yes, we have some plot holes, but rhythm of the movie won't let you think over them much.

The cast is a also good mixture of typical heist and thriller movies' stars. Matt Dillon, Jean Reno, Laurence Fishburne as well as Fred Ward, Skeet Ulrich. Fishburne is particularly shining.

As I said. it is satisfying with its action and thriller dose. But as a 'heist' heist movie, don't heighten your expectations.

If you look for;

a heist movie with good dose of action and thriller
