Manhattan sin salida

I don't think there are many things that will be open or rather not openly foreseeable for most of the viewers. I did have one character reveal that I did not think about, but other than that ... But as it is, this movie works as a thriller, even when you know what's up.

Our Black Panther is doing a great job as a stern and immovable cop, with a tough Sienna Miller to his side. Fighting to bring justice and being very aware of local geography (not sure if it is entirely plausible what happens, but it helps further the tension and keep you on the edge of your seat).

Twists aside, this is fun and action packed, what more can one ask for? Yes a few things more, but this is decent

"We got twenty-one bridges in and out of Manhattan. Shut them down. Three rivers. Close them. Four tunnels. Block them. Stop every train and loop the subways. Then, we flood the island with blue."

Well, that's the gist of this movie! Could have been ho-hum, but Chadwick Boseman makes it much better than that! He really was one heck of an actor! And he make his character, Andre Davis, really smoke on the screen! I'd have loved to see a sequel with this character. And, of course, any more that Mr. Boseman would have done. So sad that we lost such a fine, fine actor...

The film was a pleasant surprise. Nothing new here but the camera work and action scenes were marvelous. Although the plot is not original the story was fine with good editing. Interesting take on "Manhattan island", however the script could have been better and acting was average at times. Nice Friday night flick!

Aside from being very predictable, Chadwick Boseman was "too much" in his character and very melodramatic, as was the score during highlighted scenes. Otherwise, the directing was on point, the casting great, and the run-time and pacing perfect. I enjoyed it more than I thought. 7/10 from me

Two men hold up and rob an illegal drug operation but in order to escape end up killing eight police officers. Leading the manhunt for the cop-killers is a detective under internal investigation for possibly being too trigger-happy. However, the more he finds out about the case, the less sense it makes.

Interesting drama. Starts off as a robbery gone wrong, then develops into a manhunt, then becomes something more intriguing. The manhunt part is quite intriguing, as we see the net closing and the methods involved. It is also quite action-packed without getting too over the top.

The intrigue rachets up as you go along and things are clearly not as they seem. The revelation at the end is a tad implausible though and can be seen well before the end.

Overall, a good, thrilling movie. Grabs your attention from the word go and doesn't let go.
