Surely Pierce Brosnan hasn't run through his "Mamma Mia" money already? Otherwise, what on Earth is he doing in this shameless rip-off of just about every heist movie you will ever have seen. It turns out that there is an huge cache of gold being kept secure in the middle of an high security prison in Abu Dhabi. Our man Pierce ("Richard") is recruited by a group of crooks, and by his daughter "Hope" (Hermione Corfield) to help them mastermind a robbery to relieve the unscrupulous crime kingpin whose bullion it is, of his property. They set about their plan with gusto certainly, but with little jeopardy and as the man himself says at some point "I think I need my head examined"! Not an original thought to it; an amalgam of international stars to maximise any potential it may have from elsewhere in the world and it even manages to bring in the kid from legendary musical duo "Golf & Mike" - an handsome enough Thai lad with the highly improbable name of Mike Angelo! The dialogue and acting are really nothing at all to write home about and though the ending is actually quite quirky, and Tim Roth tries his best as the man charged with thwarting their antics; this is just weak from start to finish - augmented with some glamorous locations, private jets, and - well, bling!

This has to go immediately into my all-time top 5 worst movies ever seen!!
Nothing in this movie is connected to anything else - it's like a bunch of mini-scenes cobbled together randomly. There is no logic or sense, no "humour" that you know they were trying to do and no connection with any of the characters.

Every person in this movie is there to fill out the diversity.. there's a black guy, check. An Asian brainy guy, check. Blonde hottie, check. a white guy, check. A Latino guy, check. An unknown racial background guy, check and an Asian chick that does Kung Foo, check. A ringleader older white guy, check.

They walk in and out of a jail at will. They wander through the desert on camels so they get there unnoticed - cars or planes would make them stand out in a big city. But they waltz into the prison with changed clothes, a couple of vans and a Ford Raptor -oh, and they somehow managed to plant a bomb in the desert.

Jamie Chung is in the move for one scene - she's strapped to a chair and breaks free to beat the guys up - that's the only reason she's in this movie...

This movie is a solid minus10/10
