About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, turn-your-brain-off heist romp with jokes, gadgets, and mid-air suspense, in the vein of Red Notice; Not for you if you need realism, deep characters, or high stakes.

Pros: breezy heist fun; entertaining action beats; likeable crew banter | Cons: very implausible plot; cliché, formulaic twists; thin character depth
