Leave your thoughts about Heist.
| Movie MezzanineSean BurnsNot bad for a brazenly derivative, time-killing knock-off. |
| Sacramento News & ReviewJim LaneEchoes of better movies abound in Stephen Cyrus Sepher and Max Adams' screenplay, mixed with an illogic entirely their own. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfApplying the brakes to detail worry only reinforces flimsy screenwriting and iffy casting, losing the movie's appeal as it struggles to build a more dramatically sound offering of complete nonsense. |
| The Times of IndiaReagan Gavin RasquinhaWorking in this film's favor is the aforementioned brisk pace and the taut editing. It somehow adds to the sense of desperation and urgency that the lead pair feels. Overall, a passable action potboiler. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenAs vapidly generic as its title, British director Scott Mann's Heist is a by-the-numbers crime thriller that squanders a decent cast, including Robert De Niro, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Dave Bautista. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyThe heist in Heist is pretty pedestrian, and the film turns into Die Hard-on-a-bus with a couple of so-so twists and serviceable spasms of action. If that’s what you’re looking for, rent Speed instead. |
| IGN MoviesAdam DiLeoHeist hangs together almost entirely on Morgan's charm and dogged determination. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisBattling a preposterous plot and second-tier performances that are, at best, serviceable, this roll-along thriller from Scott Mann works its keister off to turn beef jerky into chateaubriand. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckHeist nonetheless has a B-movie appeal thanks to its strong ensemble and wacky commitment to its overcomplicated, wildly absurd plotting. |
| Toronto StarPeter HowellIt almost requires belief in magic - and high tolerance for hokum - to buy this whopper of an action picture. But here's where good acting builds empathy and defeats cynicism. |
