No pun intended - this is one of those movies that almost play entirely in one location. And it works - there is enough stuff going on to keep you entertained.
And the action (choreography) is really well done! Which is not really surprising consdering Lewis Tan is in this - he probably helped a lot with achieving what we see on screen.
The story is good enough for a B-movie ... the actors are doing their best so we don't think too much and find plot holes - and it works.
I am not sure about how the movie ends (and I don't mean the possibility/prospect of a sequel) ... but it is what it is ... I think the movie could have done things differently, fate wise and all that ... but then again the shock factor may be better or higher for most.

No pun intended - even worse when while you are planning ... well it seems as everyone knows about it. How and why? And many other questions are answered - with some British humor to add some flavor to it.
This was a fun watch - even though it probably could have been told in lesser episodes and time frame ... I was not too mad about investing the extra time - talking about extra time ... listening to the differences between robbery and theft ... and how it is about time spend inside if caught? Well quite crazy stuff to say the least ... if you like real life stuff, I do not need to convince you anyway ... but this might even be for those who are not into these real life docu shows.

... or maybe don't! Actually the movie reminded me a bit of Mean Streets by Martin Scorsese. You have two friends in the movie - here it is brothers! And it makes the stakes higher but also they are really bonded ... they may not like each other. But they will do almost everything for each other.
The editing of the episodes or rather the timeline it chooses can be a bit challenging for some. But it works really like a charm. The two brothers are not good with dealing with money (The money?) ... which makes everything around them way more difficult ... also they do things without consulting each other ... which also causes issues ... but without problems, we would not have a show - now would we? Exactly - so go with the flow and enjoy the really good actors ... and the crazy twists ... might not be the ending you want - not even talking about good or bad - although morally speaking you should lower your standards anyway!
