Den of Thieves is a litany of undercooked ideas and missed potential but its biggest issue is the fact that it's a laborious slog. It wants to be a mix of Heat and The Usual Suspects but it’s not. Inside, and you get a glimpse of it every now and again, is an action-packed, potentially pretty decent 100-minute heist movie but what is served up is a 2 hour and 20-minute movie with too much filler - it’s right there but you can’t see the wood for the trees.
The idea is a pretty good one. $120 million in cash is taken out of circulation and destroyed by the Los Angeles branch of the Federal Reserve every day and a notorious, elite crew of bank robbers, led by Pablo Schreiber’s Merrimen, has their eyes on it. The only thing stopping them from pulling off the ultimate heist is LA’s most feared division in law enforcement, led by Gerard Butler’s Nick ‘Big Nick’ Flanagan, and they plan to do it right under their noses.
