Overall I thought the series was interesting. I know it's only a tv series, fiction, but one thing didn't make sense. When the FBI agent stood up at the bank and walked outside to shoot at the bank robbers. This is one person with a hand gun against 4 or 5 people with automatic weapons. And it was a shootout on the street which would place innocent victims at risk. If it was real, I don't think that ever would have happened.

This is a well crafted heist story. It kept my attention through the entire series. Most of the characters and actors were great. John Leguizamo shines in his role as the lead bank robber. However, some of the characters were a little bit over the top including a hostage negotiator who is obsessed with grammar. That's just a bit too much for my taste. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys thrillers. It is very exciting and suspenseful, but still the writing and dialogue is not as great as it could be. But hey, it's just a mini-series, right? Definitely watch this if you've got some time to kill and are looking for something to keep interest. Overall, a great series.

A few queries about the last episode which I hope can be answered.Can someone tell this Londoner what the closing comments of this series means "1013 for ever". Also who was the man in the car who got the money from the bank and handed it over at the very end?American words and phrases which are not international can confuse people such as me- other than that I really enjoyed this series - just wish the hostage who had no one meet him could have been befriended by someone from the crowd or the other hostages friends still I accept that this is not a Disney series and that not everyone lives happily ever after.Thanks

After seeing John Leguizamo on the Conan O Brien show saying that It was worth watching..... But after seeing the pilot I tought by myself..... wow how could they even survive Irak.... how can a group of marines that had professional training in arms and tactics have such a lousy aim with weapons.... And the weapons they carry I mean really.... they seemed more like amateur bank robbers who got the weapons from a crack dealer around the corner...The acting.... is just horrible... John Leguizamo was really trying... but he alone couldn't save this show...THe SWAT..... especially the Commander were terrible as hell. The whole show felt like a clumsy trip from one episode to another.Back again to the Irak part.... How did they even came back with the "militairy" skill they had a wonder that they didn't die there.And the SWAT sniper on the roof that is all poetical and all..... has lost his way he wasn't even watching trough his scope when they were ready to breachI mean really waist of money and time especially mine.
