A ‘true grit’ crime saga from Los Angeles, this film reflects our world today. Multi-faceted lives are led by people and for many of them, acuity about right and wrong is not always clearly defined.
The line that separates the good from the bad can, at times, be overlooked. Then there is a group that chooses to ignore the rules because they are not purely in black and white.
Den of Thieves follows the ‘intersecting and often personally connected lives of an elite unit of the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department and the state’s most successful bank robbery crew as they plan a seemingly impossible heist on the Federal Reserve Bank of downtown Los Angeles’.
Watching it on Blu-ray disc makes for graphic viewing.
