Le Plan parfait

Well, not perfect, but considering it's entirely an amalgam of all the same tried and true elements of a suspense-thriller-actioner--: laser shields, a la "Mission Impossible", voyeur villain, a la "Saw"s, an assemblage of highly competitive criminal masterminds, each feigning disdain for the rest, but secretly fully aware of the others' genius, like too many to mention, et al.-- competently written, played,and filmed, I'd say the end result was admirable. Carlo Rota reigns supreme as the elegant evil genius behind the whole operation. William Forsythe and Kathleen Munroe are the best of the rest, and Gia Sandhu has some great moves, Michael Hough has the thankless task of trying to inject some humor amidst the groups"tensions, but the writing's admittedly below par in that regard. The "He's my father, he's my enemy, he's my.." etc ending can't quite measure up to all that's been set up, but adequate to make this a fairly satisfying watch.

Although name is perfect plan movie is not perfect. Four different thieves asked to perform a diamond heist rehearsal in limited time period. This part has not much thrill as it should have. Another part is actual heist, and it is so simple not a bit thrill or tension and finally a little twist and gunning and movie ends. Thus movie goers very dull on the other hand it should have been much better and had lot of scope for thrill, tension and suspense. Actors and actresses are very average and none is impressive. It does not match its title. Therefore once time watchable if you have no choice else can be skipped.

I liked the acting. Some of my favorites, but the cliche way they defeat the laser motion detectors had me throwing my spaghetti against the wall. If you redirect the laser beam it's the same thing as standing in the beam. It's cuts it off from the receiver which is how the alarm gets activated. There's no delay on that. What a crock.

This movie(!) wasted my time. It isn't worth to watch it. Even if you have free time, don't waste your time on this movie :)

Kate (Kathleen Munroe) wakes up in a mysterious industrial building. She is joined by Magdalene (Gia Sandhu), Grayson (William Forsythe), and Rowan (Michael Hough). All of them have been similarly kidnapped from different cities and are each a criminal with specific skills. There is a setup of a replica safe and security cameras watching them. They are expected to show those watching how to break the system.

It's a high concept premise. That's what is best and everything else is crap. It should be just four people in a basement escape room. The rest of this movie is very unlikely. First, I don't know how there is an escape route without the controllers watching and guarding it. The last half loses me from the escape onwards. Everything is unlikely. Still, there is an interesting concept here. It does need some rethinking.
