Takers - 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars

Adrenaline rush with no good ending for a change unless 2 bad guys are less bad than everyone else.Movie opens with bank robbery and than the Russian mob and double crosses and tough cops,one dirty,STOP me if you've seen it before.Released in 2010 and running 107 minutes,what makes this film watchable  is a outstanding cast.I had to take off 1 1/2 stars because we've seen it all before,but just not as well done or acted.I wouldn't buy this film,but hell,it's a good watch when you want a rush.The cast includes Idris Elba as Gordon Cozier the leader of this crew including members Hayden Christensen as A.J.,Chris Brown     as Jesse Attica,Michael Ealy as Jake Attica  and T.I. as Ghost who just got out of jail after a job gone wrong when he had put this crew together.All to short roles by Gideon Emery     as Sergei ,leader of a russian crew and much to short role by Zoe Saldana as Lilly and Nicholas Turturro    as Franco Dalia and Glynn Turman as Chief Detective Duncan.Into this mix are the 2 cops.Matt Dillon as Jack Welles  and Jay Hernandez as Eddie Hatcher ,and many,many others. The next to final shootout in a hotel reminds one of "true romance"which I'll review down the road.See it once,like eating cotton candy.Trailer URL follows pix
