The director's latest action-thriller may not be art but it's a lot of fun.

But, unlike Bay’s last effort, the tedious “6 Underground” or some of his other entries into the cinematic hall of shame such as “Pearl Harbor” or “Transformers: The Last Knight,” his over-the-top shamelessness actually works to this film’s advantage. Score one for the broken clock. Gyllenhaal is Danny Sharp, a thief with high ambitions of pulling off a big score and Abdul-Mateen II is Will, Danny’s estranged brother, a man who left the hustling life behind to join the armed forces. Now with a wife , kid, medical bills and no job, he’s open to Danny’s offer to cut him in on the action in exchange for helping him pull off a high-stakes robbery.
