It's a Steal

6/10

"Army of Thieves is a superior (zombie-less) prequel to Zack Snyder's original zombie fest "Army Of The Dead". Although this is a predictable Netflix production, there are enough action, twists, shallow dialogue and romance for an evening of entertaining viewing. Set in Europe, Army of Thieves is a starring vehicle for German director/writer Matthias Schweighöfer, who shines in the lead role as the nerdy and silly safecracker and in giving a European angle to the film's directing. Hans Zimmer's music score also gets a thumbs up, and so does Bernhard Jasper's cinema..."

💡 Did You Know?

Korina's backstory claims she hacked a copy of the film Pirates of the Caribbean 2 (2006) and released it online before the film's scheduled release. In reality, while POTC 2 was never hacked and released online, the fifth installment of the Pirates franchise (2017) was indeed hacked, stolen, and held for ransom before being released online. Presumably, changing which film was hacked allowed the story to align more with Korina's age in her backstory.
