Ambulance [Movie Review]

Ambulance [Movie Review] | This one movie is the one that got me very excited, even when I watched the trailer. I went to Mid Valley to catch the earliest show as I want the hall to be not crowded (still scared about the global pandemic).

It is Jake, y'all!

His wife is not to keen of him reaching out to his brother, Danny as Danny is a life-long criminal. 

In fact, his brother and father are a life-long criminal. He was adopted and brought up in such environment, before he listed and served, just to get as far as possible from the criminal life. 

When he arrives at Danny's, he was immediately offered a part of a simple heist that Danny is planning. A simple heist being breaking into a bank that is currently holding $32 million prior to transferring it to another place.  

Everything was sailing smoothly until Officer Zach decided to come in and confess his feeling towards Kim, the bank teller at the bank. Then he realises that the bank is being robbed. And now he is one of the hostages.

When the SIS team realises that Danny and Will has escaped in an ambulance, the whole police force was put into move to capture the duo.

Will the duo come home safe to their families?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.8/ 5.0 The plot is very predictable. What differentiate this one from thw typical heist movie that the whole movie about the run, the action and the shoot outs.

It was really action-packed! I was at the edge of my seat the whole time.

Cast: 4.7/ 5.0 Great cast who delivered the best of their art!

Will I Watch It Again: Yes, I don't mind watching it again with my usual buddies.
