Attempting a robbery during one of the biggest hurricanes in history could be a stroke of genius because the town has already been evacuated for safety reasons, so no resistance is expected.
Isn't the set-up perfect? It's the perfect backdrop for an action movie because the chaos during the storm and the robbery will provide enough material for action scenes.
What is left to make such a setup successful is the outstanding performances of the director and the actors. In practice, these are only expectations and a preliminary idea before watching the movie. The truth will be revealed after watching the movie.
The 2018 movie The Hurricane Heist received full marks for its story. I say this both in terms of the fiction and the way the story is handled by the protagonists and the action scenes, which I think are in the right dose.
In similar action movies, I often find it right to add the tragedy of the heroes' past lives to the movie. It makes the movie more mysterious and creates sympathy for the heroes. You follow more carefully any information (scene) of a personality you like.
In The Hurricane Heist, the tradition remains unchanged and the movie starts with a tragic mini-story about two brothers in their childhood, caused by a storm. Immediately, the audience warms up to the main characters as adults and becomes more curious about their story.
The interconnections between the hurricane, the attempted robbery and the tragic stories of the protagonists make the movie more enjoyable to watch. In terms of genre, I liked the action and mystery aspects of the movie the most, both of which fit perfectly into the atmosphere created.
All the action scenes are in harmony with the storm and the difficulty caused by the storm. The mystery is added to the story in harmony with the other elements, making the story more interesting. For example, I liked the last minute password mystery the most, almost when I thought it was over, the movie started all over again.
The brothers Will and Breeze, as the main protagonists of the movie and the tragic story, stood out with their performances. Toby Kebbel as Will and Ryan Kwanten as Breeze stood out the most with their harmony. Both actors gave their maximum contribution to the movie.
I have already said that I liked the editing of The Hurricane Heist, but what I liked was the beginning story of the movie. The tragic transition of the two characters affects every moment of the movie. While questioning the decisions of their characters, you cannot ignore the tragic event.
I recommend watching the movie, which peaks the excitement with its gripping and action-packed story. The story and the connection of the events adds extra mystery to the movie and causes time to flow fast.
Thank you for being here and reading. I hope I was able to help you get a preliminary idea about the movie. Have a good weekend, Goodbye!
