Quick Review: Each character is too smart to be credible, there are a few elements that seem borrowed from classic heist films, and some of the flaws are obvious, but "Den of Thieves" makes up with a cleverly-conceived and compelling plot-line with enough mystery, intrigue, and twists to keep you on your toes, a very skillful technical and directional execution that fits its gritty essence, and a precisely-picked cast led by Butler's superb performance as the wicked, cocky, sassy cop.

I'll have to watch it then. If I leave my brain at the door I'm sure I'll totally enjoy it.
Alex, don't. You're gonna need it. :) The film was actually kinda clever.
