Sean Falco (Robert Sheehan) is a good guy at heart with girlfriend Riley. Secretly, he's a small time thief with his buddy Derek Sandoval. They use their valet jobs to sneak into unsuspecting diners' homes. One such diner is ill-tempered Cale Erendreich (David Tennant). When Sean breaks into Cale's home, he discovers a woman chained up inside. He tries to do the right thing which has its repercussions.
This is an old fashion thriller and I like it as such. There are a couple of things that I like about the characters and a couple of things that I see possible improvements. I do like Sean's unabashed need to save the girl and I also like Derek's realistic need to save himself. I like both performances. As for Tennant, he is perfectly creepy. He does need to kidnap the girlfriend. That's the big opportunity missed by the movie. Instead, it becomes a misunderstanding which leaves her looking clueless. On the other hand, I don't mind the clueless police detective. He has reasons to be clueless. It's nice to have a smart FBI agent although she has a few too many backups. They're trying a little too hard. It's more intense to have Agent Fuller alone struggling inside the system. Overall, I like Sean as a smart normal thief who has morality which drives him and drives this movie.
