After a heist goes terribly wrong, Casey Stein (Nicholas Hoult) finds himself on the run from a ruthless gang headed by mob boss Hagen (Anthony Hopkins). Now Casey has precious cargo that belongs to Hagen, who will stop at nothing to retrieve it. Left with no choice, Casey calls his former employer and drug smuggler Geran (Ben Kingsley) to protect his long-time girlfriend Juliette before Hagen gets his hands on her. Casey sets out on an adrenaline-fueled car chase on the German highways to save the love of his life before it's too late.

I organized a movie event for the company and chose this movie as it was the movie which best fit our criteria - within the timeslot we want, within walking distance from lunch place, genre suit both genders and not watched by anyone yet.

You see, the downside of finding a movie which no one had watched before aka newly released film (I couldn't even find it in the Wikipedia!), would be to accept a risk that this might be B to C grade movie, which unfortunately in this case it turned out to be so!

We were conned by the name of Anthony Hopkins, thinking that it should be worthy but alas he didn't even appear in a lot of scenes in the movie! It didn't help that the drinks at that cinema also offer lower than expected quality of drinks and nachos... :(

How do I describe this? Hmm, cheesy and cheap thrill, better off watching the Korean dramas at home!

Well, at least the actor and actress are still watchable and we got to go back early after the show... haha...
