What a film. This film follows the events of the 1997 Bank of America shootout in Hollywood in a documentary style.

While there is a few discrepancies the plot is strongly close to actual events. So for the purpose of the review I'm sticking to just the movie.

Good acting throughout the film, and holds you 8n a captivating way. Straight to the action, no messing around. The two villains are relatable as much as villains can be. Even showing a bit of emotion towards the end of the film. Good special effects and a few comedy moments help to break up the tension created by the main plot.

This title will have you sitting on the edge of your seat (more so if you're not familiar with the true events) A definite watch if you love over the top gun fights and movies that get straight to the point.

Audio problem: When the cops get into the gun shop to buy some weapons you see a police officer on the left loading a M4 (or checking something) but you never hear the sound of this action.

Question: At the end of the film, there is a series of clips and news articles covering the aftermath of the shootout. Does anyone know if the clips in the film are genuine news clips from the aftermath of the event or if they are filmed for the purpose of this movie? One shot shows 3 LAPD officers getting a medal presented to them, one shows footage of people taking gifts to the LAPD etc.
