Anti-Haters: Who Actually Enjoyed This Film


I just watched it and I have to say that I loved it. It was not your typical run of the mill heist film. It had twists, turns, and an interesting plot. Not to mention the cast was hot! The writing was pretty phenomenal as well. I don't know why people are hating on this movie and on the cast so much... HATERS!!!

It was ridiculous but a fun movie.

I loved it, I've already seen it twice and plan on going a few more times.

Me and my friends who saw this last night also enjoyed it. It was better than expected, and I liked the way it was filmed.

Yeah this was better than i thought it was gonna be, there is alot of Heat-esque moments in this movie but hey if your gonna rip off a heist movie, then Heat is the best choice! So yeah its a fun movie, some good action...i wouldnt object to a sequel.

Even the shiniest piece of trash is still just piece of trash.

I loved it personally, kept my heart racing through several scenes and nicely lensed as well. Fun movie that I'll most certainly pickup on Blu-Ray later.

I've got news for you, I don't think you've ever seen a heist movie. If this is the first time you've ever seen a heist film do such a thing.

Hell yeah it was dope. I'd give it a B plus. I loved all the action scenes. Chris Brown was pretty bad-ass with his stunts. Hayden rocked in his fight scenes and went out like a G when he got shot.:( And I loved seeing Paul naked:O;) he kept me steamy through the whole movie. I said it before and I'll say it 100x this is the sexiest cast of men to make a film!

I just saw it and I loved it. I can see why this film was #1 its opening week. I could definitely watch this again on DVD too.

Oddly enough, when you look at the voting breakdown here on IMDB, what you see overwhelmingly is that females liked it a lot more than males. I guess the marketing idea was to get the guys to love all the shooting and fighting and the gals to love all the hot actors. It worked for the second set, and not so much for the first.

I thought not only were the actors really enjoyable to watch, but that the story was really interesting. I'm glad I never saw the trailers. I was taken to it knowing nothing about what to expect, and that's always the best way to see any movie.

I was definitely one of the people rooting for the Takers. If I knew how to use spoilers on here I would say more, but suffice to say I really loved almost everything about this movie. 9/10 for me.

I actually enjoyed this movie going in with low expectations.... what REALLY caught me off guard was the people who were in the audience. All white people, me and my girlfriend were the only people of different race. I even saw your typical movie buff in there (guy with his popcorn, by himself, glasses on , ready to see a great movie kind of guy) I was surprised.

If the same plot was run by bigger and powerful hollywood stars may be a lot of people may change their opinion.

I liked the camera work and the back ground music. (Some shots were childish... After the bank heist the way they blow off the news chopper when all of them were less than 100 ft away with their cars ).

Matt Dillon could have done a bit more in the end. That part they did like it happens in the real world :) ..

I really enjoyed this movie. I also loved the fact that the audience was so into the movie. The cheering, and laughing made it fun to watch.

My favorite scene was the chase scene with Chris. The best part had to be the heist. When Paul Walker first punched the guy, it was on. And the most intense part was in the hotel when T.I. left out the window.

I wasn't a fan of the ending but I still loved the movie.
