Bullets fly on the Atlanta freeway as armed thieves make their getaway following a bank robbery in broad daylight. Unhappy with the results, ruthless gangster Irina Vlaslov orders the men to pull off another job. One member of the team is Marcus Belmont (Anthony Mackie), a crooked cop who gets saddled with Chris Allen (Casey Affleck), his new but incorruptible police partner. As Belmont and his cohorts lay the groundwork for the heist, they come up with a devious plan to use Allen as their pawn.

Critics Consensus

Triple 9's pulpy potboiler thrills don't quite live up to the ferocious talents of its cast, but the film's efficient, solidly crafted genre fun is often enough to balance its troublesome flaws.

At the end of the day, stories need to be about characters, not types. While nothing that ought to inspire a letter writing campaign from the ADL,"Triple 9" fails to make it past shorthand.

The real screen stealer in Triple 9 is Clifton Collins Jr., as the quietly diabolical, dirty detective Rodriguez. He is a reason why this film will keep you glued to your seat.

It's the kind of crooked cop film that will likely wind up on a random list of 100 Crooked Cop Movies compiled in no ranking order... in the next few years. It's that derivative.

'Triple 9' honors the esteemed tradition of American crime films, tipping its hat hither and thither to the greats that preceded it, creating a circus of variably intriguing characters to smash into one another along the way.

That's what makes Triple 9 more disappointing than anything else; it's not a bad movie, but "not bad" shouldn't be good enough here...

Triple 9 probably won’t go down as one of the great heist films on par with Die Hard or The Italian Job, but it might.

Your typical bad cop movie, not bad, worth the time, no surprises you already know just what is going to happen and it does.

Bleak and disturbing, Triple 9 wastes an amazing cast on a lame heist plot.

I'm a John Hillcoat fan. I was a bit wary as the setting was so different to his other movies, bank robery, cops and gangster in contemporary USA. I loved this film. Music was amazing. It gripped me from the start to the finish. I love his films so real gritty look. I still get the he b jee b s when I think about that seen with the teeth in the bag. Go John Hillcoat go!

The cast is absolutely stellar (Ejiofor and Winslet's performances are superb) and the cinematography gives off an appropriately grim feel that fits in well with the violent, bloody action. That's about as good as it gets, though. The characters are severely under-developed with too many of them vying for screen time, giving the audience little to go on if they want us to care for anyone; and it's much too slow to move, with the pay off at the end being non-existent and a complete let-down. The story itself revolving around corrupt cops definitely had potential with its exploration of morals -- the complexities and the limits to which each character is willing to go and their justifications - but in the end, it's just too stale and fails to engage as much as you'd hope. I can't say that it's terrible, it's just very underwhelming.
