Honest Thief begins with the most ridiculous premise in film history. A bank robber wants to return his stolen loot and is willing to serve a few years for this.

Of course you sense that this brings out the worst of the FBI agents on duty. We are introduced to four cops: the supervisor (Robert Patrick) with his sidekick, and a younger cop (Jai Courtney) and his sidekick.

With barely 10 minutes on the clock, I already knew what their role in the film would be.

Good cop, bad cop, dead cop and cop with remorse.

Nevertheless, after half an hour I caught myself in some discomfort. It was like a kind of tension I felt. Was soulless Liam Neeson activehikel number 3908345 really exciting? Yes, quite a bit. Despite the terrible predictability, it is certainly not a bad film.

You're going to wonder how Liam Neeson ever actually became an action hero. From Oskar Schindler to that stay-at-home dad in Love Actually, I can't recall ever doing anything action-wise for Taken .

But that legendary 2009 film propelled him into a sort of Northern Irish Stallone. No muscles and drooping corner of the mouth, but a hooked nose and an icy calm.

I can understand that he has been squeezing out one action lick after another in recent years, because if you look closely at his face, his action kicks will become extremely unbelievable in a very short time.

Striking: on the poster they really pulled out all the stops in Photoshop to make him look a bit younger (ridiculous).

Anyway, great viewing, 3 stars.
