The Hurricane Heist
Director Rob Cohen is best known for launching the Fast and the Furious series, and also the vastly less successful xXx spy film series. He’s like a smart Brett Ratner, or a classy Michael Bay, which is to say: You’re watching something utterly fucking brainless with no real redeeming quality, but at least you’re not going to feel too debased afterwards. The Hurricane Heist wasn’t screened for critics, which doesn’t really matter because either this Snakes on a Plane-esque premise (“Let’s rob the US Treasury during a hurricane!”) sounds good to you or it doesn’t, and no highfalutin’ elitist Ebert wanna-be is gonna tell you any different.
