From the direction to the script to the production elements to the performances, Triple Frontier is a first-class ride. Read full review

Triple Frontier is a solid, engrossing genre item with designs on being something more. It doesn’t quite get there but it does well enough along the way to make the journey worth taking. Read full review

There may be no honor among thieves, but Triple Frontier certainly makes watching them pretty entertaining. Read full review

Triple Frontier has the good sense to take a macho, Expendables-like set-up and turn it inward. It just doesn’t go far enough. Read full review

Despite the heavy dose of action and numerous tense situations, this Netflix offering has trouble staying in high gear once it gets there and the characterizations remain one dimensional — the men all speak exactly the same way. Read full review

Chandor handles the action scenes smoothly, making it easy to gloss over what the movie is saying, trying to say or accidentally saying. He maintains the kind of accelerated pace that gives your eyes a workout, and pads the story with an inviting camaraderie that brings you into the group. Read full review

J.C. Chandor turns an intensely physical narrative into another of his inadvertently generic studies of procedure. Read full review

It's a good action film with a slightly unique take on the genre. It's not 2 hours of pure action, the writing could have been a little better, but the great cast and interesting plot keep it going and made me want to keep watching.

I was expecting some decent entertainment from this one, but not only did I not get as near much of that as I was hoping for, but it also turned out to be pretty loud and dumb/brainless.

A pretty solid group of actors, who all gave fine performances, felt mostly wasted in this rather clumsy, predictable, and cliche-riddled film. Overall, it's got some cool and explosive moments, but it's not enough to warrant a view if you ask me. And to think that director J.C. Chandor (director of brilliant films such as 'Margin Call' and 'A Most Violent Year') reduced himself to this mindless mess!… Expand

It steps into gear when the heist happens, of course.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A utter waste of what looked like a good movie from the clips. How we go from supposedly crack unit of soldiers pulling off a heist, only to then change into utter morons that are mega greedy and seem to have lost any ounce of common sense is beyond me. It goes with the usual clichés for this genre: "If it can go wrong, it will go wrong" + "crime does not pay". And to top it all off at the end, they did what they should have in the first few hours of running with the money. i.e. Hide some of it somewhere only they knew about and could go back for later. Which would have made the helicopter ride to freedom and riches much more believable. But no apparently these super talented soldiers would rather crash, trek through the jungle, kill various other people or die as a result of said killing and apparently never eat and have arguments with each other whilst pissing away everything they stole in various stupid scenarios.… Expand
