It isn't bulletproof by a long shot, but director Nimrod Antal's grungy gang-of-thieves pic is tough and, for this genre, surprisingly ethical.

Antal is never much beyond serviceable here, but he does make a chase-duel between two entirely identical armored cars almost decipherable, which is no mean feat.

Armored should crackle with nervous energy; however, the bland characters don't get much of interest to do and are virtually interchangeable.

Director Nimod Antal's stripped-down genre exercise -- there's not even a hint of a romantic subplot -- is unremarkable but efficient.

It's free of gimmicky twists, to be sure, but it's also lacking tension, ingenuity and fun.

Armored won't win any prizes, but it does offer comforting evidence that there's still room for a well-crafted B movie among CG-laden spectacles.

You'd have to put me in a lock box to see it again.

This unambitious caper flick takes a while to get moving but gradually develops a modest meat-and-potatoes appeal, compromised in the third act by a whopping and perfectly avoidable plot hole.
December 04, 2009
It's a film without twists, where everything is what it seems, and when the mess has been resolved, it's even at a loss for a proper denouement. Armored just ends-and with it, so does the access to plush chairs and free air conditioning.
December 07, 2009
An unabashed B movie: basic, brutal and sometimes clumsy, but far from dumb, and not bad at all.

Isn't clever or inventive enough to seem like a high-stakes game.
