Movies further offer an enticing experience for their audiences when their characters are complex, the lines between good and bad are not as clearly defined, and the perceptions of wrong and right are not simple. One such story that upholds the contemplation over morals in its intricate characters is the new crime drama, &#8216;Den of Thieves,&#8217; which <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2017\/04\/05\/interview-gemma-arterton-bill-nighy-their-finest\/\">STX Entertainment<\/a> will release tomorrow in theaters. The action movie was written by Christian Gudegast, who also made his feature film directorial and producing debuts on the project.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Den of Thieves&#8217; focuses on an elite crew of bank robbers, who plot to pull off the ultimate heist, and the hard-working gang unit of the L.A. Sheriff\u2019s department that\u2019s determinedly working to bring the burglars to justice. The robbers, who are collectively referred to as the Outlaws, are led by the always-in-control Ray Merriman (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2017\/09\/18\/adam-rody-big-bear-exclusive-clip\/\">Pablo Schreiber<\/a>). The leader is joined by disciplined family man, Enson Levoux (50 Cent), and Bosco Ostroman (Evan Jones), a battle-hardened veteran and gifted thief. The Outlaws also recruit a new driver, Donnie Wilson (O\u2019Shea Jackson Jr.), an ex-con bartender who may be out of his league.<\/p>\n<p>The gang operates with military precision and meticulous planning, which its members acquired from military special ops service and prison stints. However, in order to pull off the ultimate heist, the Outlaws will have to use their skills to outmaneuver the Major Crimes unit of the Los Angeles Sherriff\u2019s Department, which is known as the Regulators. The unit operates in unconventional ways that often blur the lines between criminal and police behavior, in order to bring down the most elusive and dangerous offenders. The Regulators are led by \u201cBig Nick\u201d O\u2019Brien (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2013\/03\/18\/interview-gerard-butler-talks-olympus-has-fallen\/\">Gerard Butler<\/a>), a career detective who\u2019s seemingly unencumbered by a moral compass. His career choices and priorities destroy what remains of his family life. But he\u2019ll stop at nothing to put an end to Merriman\u2019s crime spree, which has been taunting the authorities for years, due to his increasingly ambitious unsolved robberies.<\/p>\n<p>After a simple operation to commandeer an armored truck turns into a brutal firefight, the Outlaws become the primary target of the Regulators. Rattled by the robbery gone sideways, Merriman sets his sights on the ultimate heist: infiltrating the Los Angeles branch of the Federal Reserve and stealing $30 million of unfit U.S. currency that\u2019s being taken out of circulation before it can be shredded and destroyed. If they can pull of the heist, the Outlaws will steal money that nobody is looking for. After the Outlaws\u2019 extensively research their plan, the Outlaws are forced to track them down before the gang can pull off the unprecedented feat of stealing from the Federal Reserve.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Den of Thieves&#8217; is a distinct and alluring action crime drama that\u2019s expertly driven by the specificity of the lifestyles of the Outlaws and Regulators. While the story is seemingly compelled by Merriman and his team\u2019s plan to be the first group to successfully rob the Los Angeles office of the Federal Reserve, Gudegast notably crafted a nuanced and multi-faceted character-driven narrative overall. The filmmaker expertly highlighted the complex relationships between the professional bank robbers and the detectives who are hunting them, and how the two crews operate. Showcasing why Merriman and \u201cBig\u201d Nick do what they do successfully overcame typical heist stunts to become the true fuel for the movie.<\/p>\n<p>While \u201cBig\u201d Nick and his fellow detectives in the Major Crimes unit are driven to stop their proclaimed foes in the Outlaws gang, the drama intriguingly blurs the line between the protagonists and the antagonists, as both sides begin to take on both heroic and villainous natures. Merriman\u2019s crew, which is made up of numerous military veterans, is motivated in part by the challenge of a complex mission more than just the sheer criminality. Conversely, \u201cBig\u201d Nick\u2019s team have a fondness for relying more on alcohol and violence than by-the-book questioning in order to convince their suspects to cooperate with them. The line between detective and criminal is further blurred when Merriman and \u201cBig\u201d Nick realize, and accept, the fact that they\u2019re adversaries of equal authority, as they set out to accomplish their ultimate goal.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2013\/03\/22\/olympus-has-fallen-movie-review\/\">Butler<\/a>, who previously collaborated with Gudegast when he wrote the script for the 2016 action thriller sequel, &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2014\/11\/04\/gerard-butler-and-aaron-eckhart-lead-returning-cast-as-london-has-fallen-begins-filming\/\">London Has Fallen<\/a>,&#8217; left a lasting impression with his portrayal of \u201cBig\u201d Nick. The actor powerfully showcased how the detective is intimidating, but not easily intimidated. The actor also effortlessly emphasized how strongly pretentious his character can be while he\u2019s working, since he lives in a world where he has to be willing to do whatever it takes to obtain the information and results he needs. In the process of obsessively chasing each new lead in his cases, he has unfortunately forsaken the happiness, security and safety of his wife and their two young daughters. The detective is noteworthy in the fact that he recognizes how he\u2019s failed as a husband and father, in an effort furthering his career, and wants to do whatever is necessary to protect his children.<\/p>\n<p>While Butler infused \u201cBig\u201d Nick with an at-times tauntingly arrogant and brash demeanor, Schreiber balanced the scale between the two leaders by instilled Merriman with a controlled and subdued manner. Schreiber gave a disciplined and intense performance as the criminal leader, who never wavered in showing his character\u2019s determination and faith in his ability to succeed in the heist. The actor also relished in Merriman\u2019s lack of fear and nihilism, as he\u2019s learned not to be afraid of death in his lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Den of Thieves&#8217; is a gritty Los Angeles action saga that captivatingly follows the intersecting and often personally connected lives of the elite Major Crimes unit of the L.A. County Sheriff\u2019s Department and the state\u2019s most successful bank robbery crew as the outlaws. Driven by the specificity of the lifestyles of the Outlaws and Regulators, which showcase how the lines between the detectives and criminals\u2019 behavior are blurred, and the strong performances by Bulter and Schreiber, Gudegast crafted a taut action thriller that\u2019s equal parts grand crime heist thriller and psychological drama.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical: B+<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Acting: B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>S<strong>tory: B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall: B<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: &#8216;Den of Thieves&#8217; Director: Christian Gudegast Starring: Gerard Butler, 50 Cent, O&#8217;Shea Jackson Jr. and Pablo Schreiber The most enticing and engaging stories are those that are reflective of the conflicts and emotions modern world.
