I'm sure he meant unintenionally. I passed on this one in theatres because it got terrible reviews from critics and RT members alike.

greekak229 · 11-05-2010, 12:45 AM

This is definitely one movie I'm not "taking."

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

wolfbane5 · 11-05-2010, 12:56 AM

I don't think I'll be buying it, but I thought it was a decent movie.

Oh I meant it intentionally. What started off looking promising quickly became a cliche fest and with terrible direction and photography.

[Show spoiler]

Having said this it was a fairly enjoyable movie with a few great action pieces. Even though the best sequence was ripped from Casino Royale. I would recommend that people rent/netflix it. I was glad my cousin bought my ticket for this one.

No, no...I meant, you meant the movie was unintentionally funny.

JaysC6 · 01-19-2011, 01:13 PM

I really enjoyed this movie. Although character development and extraordinary acting are not Takers' calling cards, it was definitely a fun, action-packed 95+ minutes. The transfer and AQ were excellent as well. I would definitely recommend this movie to someone looking for a fun heist movie.

ArmyOfDarknessAW · 01-19-2011, 01:15 PM

I watched this last night and I loved it. It was much better then I was expecting. I will buy it when I can.

Kizzo · 01-19-2011, 04:24 PM

Rented it last night. WOW this is a very good movie... this kind of caught me by surprise to be honest.

Also the cast was great... they all looked great in suits. Very handsome guys.

i actually ended up liking this movie and will get it day one.
what makes me laugh though are those terrible quotes on the cover:
"as cool as ocean's eleven" & "the best plot and cast assembled
since american gangster"

ok, ocean's eleven was pretty cool, but doesn't compare to takers
whatsoever. as for american gangster; best cast assembled??
who besides denzel washington and russell crowe was even in that one!?
takers especially rips off heat and one scene was just straight
out of true romance, but i thought it was done quite well.
even though idris elba will definitely never compare to deniro in heat,
he is actually pretty cool in the movie.
again one of those style over substance flicks, but i really enjoyed
the set design of the apartments, houses, etc

plus with sony i'm pretty sure the transfer will rock.

Shallow_ · 01-08-2011, 07:52 PM

Just finished watching the Takers Bluray, and this film was great! Its a heist film so its similar to many others, and the director says he got the inspiration after watching Heat in 1994.
Audio and video on this release is fantastic, will most likely get a 4.5-5/5.

Oh, and pics or it didnt happen right ?
