‘Takers’ took nothing but my money

A movie released on Aug. 27 left people saying to themselves, "thank goodness it's finally over."

Takers, directed by John Lussenhop, is about a group of bank robbers who have been living the life of luxury after their latest successful robbery.

Following the celebration of their latest robbery, Gordon, A.J., John, Jake and Jesse played by Chris Brown, Idris Elba, Paul Walker, Hayden Christensen and Michael Ealy find themselves unwillingly reunited with a former accomplice Ghost, played by T.I. Harris.

When Ghost proposes a new job that would result in $20 million, the team has to decide whether they can successfully go through with the robbery without getting caught by an enraged detective who will stop at nothing to find the city's infamous robbers.

Although the movie had enormous potential with a very workable plot, it lacked on numerous levels.

Amateur camera work like the work done in this film should be left for movies that only make it to the small screen.

The shakiness throughout the entire movie became unbearable and made me, and quite frankly any person, want to be home with some Pepto-Bismol.

In addition to the unbearable shakiness throughout the entire movie, the constant changing of scenes was way too much to handle. How many times do we have to go back and forth from a guy lying on a bed to a guy looking through an empty house? One time is good enough for me.

All in all, if you want to catch a decent late night action movie, then "Takers" isn't for you. Why pay money to get sick from poor camera work when you can stay at home and stay feeling good for free?

Listen to me when I tell you that the money you would spend on that movie ticket can be used for something better.
