Tom (James Franco) and Anna (Kate Hudson) rent out their basement to "cousin" Ben. Ben dies, they find money, they need money, bad guys figure out they have it.

This is another couple discover drug money, can't call cops, bad guys come after them film. There are other films like this out there and most of them are done badly. The reason these type of films don't work is the "why didn't they....?" questions. When you know the bad guys are coming for you, buy quality diamonds and smuggle them into the US where you resell them. Diamonds smuggle easier than cash. You can swallow them in a baggie if you like.

The action wasn't that great. The dialogue wasn't cool. The bad guy (Omar Sy) called himself Genghis Khan. Seriously? That's what they wrote to be clever. Not enough honest cops to help out. The excitement level wasn't there until the last twenty minutes where our home renovator...oh don't want to reveal that one.

Parental Guide: F-bomb. forced groping. Kate Hudson butt nudity.

And what is good anyway? Who defines what actions are good? Or if good people are not capable of doing bad things? And would that make them bad people? Don't get it twisted though: This is not a philosophical look at those things. If you even remotely asks those questions, it's not because the movie intended to make you think that much. It's your own perception that goes that extra mile (or two).

The movie moves along nicely, you can see almost everything coming your way and it's decent, if you're not annoyed by the standard formula this uses. It's nice to see another french actor making the move into "mainstream" Hollywood, even if he's not in it that much. Decent or a time waster, depending on your threshold

I don't understand people these days. This is well directed, well acted thriller worth seeing. Intense, dramatic and with great cast, both good and villians.
