My choices are

The rural town of New Hope, Ala., has a pair of super-sized problems heading its way: There's a hurricane bearing down on the Gulf coastline, and there's a team of 30 well-armed mercenaries intent on looting the local treasury facility. Sadly no Stealing a Hurricane would be a much better movie. Call Soderbergh. --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Update:
I decided to go. Fuck the polls. Got there about 10m late because of some minor car trouble and just...leaving late... and then found out the showing I wanted was in the VIP cinema, twice as expensive. I've done it once and it wasn't that great. Also I've probably missed the start So there's another showing in about 45m, I'm going to that instead. --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ...

Movie was fine
Probably pushed the references a bit much to the point it got in the way of the movie, but then Music got on my nerves, soundtrack is seriously corny in the worst of ways --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I've heard pretty bad reviews. I hear it just tries to jam tons of 90's nostalgia references down your throat one after another with no real reason for doing so. Just like a remember this, and this, and this. Haven't seen it though that's just what I've heard.

Just like a remember this, and this, and this. Haven't seen it though that's just what I've heard. I'd say there's quite a bit of that but that it would be unfair to say it's "just" that. I like the weird visuals of it too. And it impressed me how Ben Mendelsohn's character in the game matched the mouth movements of the actor irl. I know about facial capture etc but it was much more noticeable and cool with him because he speaks in such a unique way. There's a couple of cool, if slightly obvious, lines about dangers of social media etc but that gets buried deep underneath the next pop culture reference --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ...

I didn't like how watered down the "quest" aspects of the movie were.
And that's saying something because even in the book i felt like they started hand-waving too many important things about halfway through, but it was even more egregious in the movie. Other than that it was a "fun" movie and i enjoy the themes and references if nothing else. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

The references were fun, but once the main plot/conflict took over, it was a slog to get through. Movie felt like it was three hours long.

The rural town of New Hope, Ala., has a pair of super-sized problems heading its way: There's a hurricane bearing down on the Gulf coastline, and there's a team of 30 well-armed mercenaries intent on looting the local treasury facility. I was thinking about this movie earlier today The idea of using a vicious Hurricane as the cover for a heist is such a ridiculously audacious idea that I'm instantly on the side of the thieves here. Or heist movies have really done a number on my moral compass, I dunno. But it feels like they made the wrong people the good guys in this one. I 100% want the people with the balls to rob the US Treasury during a fucking killer Hurricane to succeed. --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think people are generally on the side of the heist perpetrators in these movies. Ocean's Eleven, The Sting, The Thomas Crown Affair... they are generally protagonists.

Heat tries to paint De Niro as somewhat sympathetic though. There's respect at the end of the film between De Niro and Pacino.

All the previews and source material I've seen are terrible. That's all I'm judging it by. If people say it's actually amazing despite the previews then I'll check it out. But just cuz it "gamer" themes doesn't mean we have to love it.
