When a group of cops and ex-special forces guys find themselves being forced to do an impossible heist for the Russian mob, extreme measures are called for…the triple 9. That’s when you kill a cop and pretty much every cop in the state ignores everything else in order to get to the scene. But, best laid plans and all.
This is brought to you by director John Hilcoat who helmed such great pics as The Proposition, The Road and Lawless so already some major cred there. Add in this crackerjack cast: Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Anthony Mackie, Aaron Paul, Norman Reedus, Woody Harrelson, Kate Winslet, Clifton Collins, Jr., Michael K. Williams, Teresa Palmer, and Gal Gadot…I mean, wow. But does this twisty crime thriller match the pedigree of its stars? Listen to Chris, Elliott, JC and Herman give you the low-down.
