So, should you watch or not? Yes if you like shoot'em up films. The characters are dirty and gritty. It has a lot of great actors in it. I like them all and they all do a great job. I didn't even know that was Kate Winslett as the Russian. Is this an Oscar contender, of course not. None of the movies I like ever are.

So last night I decided to make a couple of banana and blueberry smoothies, have a lazy night, and watch the movie Triple 9 with my dad. I remember when this film first came out, and I really wanted to see it. It has an amazing cast, the choreography and camera work look great, and overall it looked like a nice chill out and watch kind of flick. The criminals in this world can do pretty much, whatever they want, because the cops are the biggest criminals. The Israeli/Russian mob in Atlanta of all places, forces these cops to rob banks and do more ruthless acts of crime.The opening to this movie is off the chain. It has a bank-robbing scene, a car chase, a cool shoot out, great action scenes, and cinematography, and it is all done with so much style. This movie really does have amazing looking scenes, and this is a director (John Hillcoat) I was thinking could be a potential to direct a Batman movie.The beginning is awesome, but the movie slowly begins to fade away after that. It's like they blew their entire load in the beginning. Which I understand you want to start things off on a high note. But contain yourself, hold some of that load for later. Damn, that sounds weird. But I'm sure you get the picture. This movie does a real good job of making Atlanta look scary. Woody Harrelson, high off his ass and wearing a werewolf mask in Atlanta is enough to keep me away from Atlanta for a while put it that way. Even though my Granddad lives there…oh well. When I'm not scared anymore, I'll come visit you. Don't blame me, blame Triple 9.Also, I thought it was cool how the movie kept calling them dirty cops, and some of the cast members who play cops look dirty, worn down, and grungy. To keep things simple, Aaron Paul pretty much plays the same character from Breaking Bad. He looks sweaty, grungy, drugged out, and really does portray his character as if he has been through a lot.The cast is my favorite part about this entire movie. But the movies biggest problem for me is I don't know who the protagonist is, and I can't relate to any of the characters. I love Casey Affleck as an actor. On the other hand, his character in this is very bland in my opinion. All I got from his character is that he chews bubble gum to look tough, and he is a newbie on this particular force. It's not that he is a weak actor, because he is not, it's the material that falls a little short. Chiwetel Ejiofor's character is the most well rounded out of everyone.Also, anyone who knows me, knows I love meh some good ol' Gal Gadot. Gal Gadot is starting to become one of my favorite actresses. She is lovely, tough, dedicated, seems very nice in person, and I think she has the potential to go down in film history, as a famous bad ass action female star, like Pam Grier and Sigourney Weaver. Unfortunately, her character is not very well developed, and she really does not have sh*t to do in this movie. I never thought I would say this about her, but you could have taken her out of the movie and it would have not made it any better or worse. This movie I feel like could have been a little bit more original. It feels like so many other movies and television shows we've seen before. Just to name some examples, this movie reminded me of Training Day, The Shield, The Town, and Street Kings.Overall, in my opinion, this film has a convoluted story, too many characters, it could have been more original, it does have great action, great cinematography, and I love this director. But the script could have had more structure to its surface. This is the kind of film where you see it playing on TV one day, you have nothing better to do, and you just watch it while doing something else. That doesn't mean it is terrible, because it is not. It's the kind of movie you can watch while preparing a banana and blueberry smoothie put it that way. I believe the film Triple 9 earns a…6 out of 10!Speaking of blowing a load early, I'm gonna blow a load a little early because I'm ready to check out of here. Thank you all for reading, and or viewing, and I hope you all have an amazing day as always. :)

We the people have collectively manholes covers sitting on/over their heads; they (the mob) have willfully lost the capacity for creative thinking in the arts and other sciences, and so judgments' in regards to quality of so-called bottom feeding consumer entertainments are paralleling, that non-thinking, as a priority. For the born again yahoo flat landers who've been so oppressed in the counter culture of backwardness, which they also presume to love and take pleasure in, have shrunken to such smallness as to accept and delight in any mere excessive fusion of violence through canned manipulations of sight and sound. Rather than carry a seamless conception of true creative beauty through tapping into some instances, which replicate possible potential of the mind, even in such a low/lesser medium, as the currently almost total absurdity of so-called films, which by degree could be all elevated should a greater people come forward and thus demand that in the culture of their society. These so-called films are a very expensive overhead and total drain (mental, moral, and financial) on entire real physical economy, and such corrupting non-industry demands that its minions remain absolute controlled doltish fools who crave, and feed, it's less than uselessness perpetually. Rather than support those monsters feed your mind/soul, and certainly never wait upon such ignorance, or worse, by paying for it!

Sometimes a movie that starts off with lots of disjointed scenes can have real punch as you piece together the snippets of story - it can be quite satisfying as things drop into place and the story becomes fully coherent. Sadly this movie jumps from scene to scene and that disjointed feeling lasts until the end. There is a story and there is some sense to it but it just doesn't gel as a movie.The police are depicted as bumbling, incompetent and corrupt but this is so exaggerated (I hope!) that it means there is no sense of realism whatsoever. The movie doesn't build empathy with any of the characters or even tell you much about them, in any case virtually all of them are unpleasant, so I was left not really caring what happened to any of them. OK to watch if you don't expect too much depth.
