Clive Owen masterminds the heist. Denzel Washington is the detective and hostage negotiator, who finds that the case is stranger than his usual tasks. Jodie Foster plays a mysterious power broker who tries to help the bank’s founder Christopher Plummer protect something in his safe deposit box.
It’s edgy and dynamic, and also occasionally funny.
The music by jazz musician and trumpeter Terence Blanchard is oddly jarring at times, but it works.
The three leads are all at their best, although I would have liked more dialogue from Clive Owen.
