Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Blistering performances.

Guy wakes up in a bunker unable to get out, not sure entirely what happened with a dying friend as his only companion. As the film progresses we get flashbacks to what happened as well as the introduction of additional characters who are all looking for the stolen loot. Confused film never really grabbed me. Its the sort of film that you have to work with to get anything out of since the film is jumping through time, but at the same time it breaks the cardinal rule of films of this type, namely you must be intriguing enough to warrant making the effort to put the story together. I was never engaged enough and after a short while I found myself lost because my attention wandered off. Well done I suppose, but not something I really needed to waste time with.

Maybe it's unfair to label this as British? A good number of the actors are from the UK, but the movie says it was filmed in Germany. Keeping with what seems to be a German theme, virtually every actor has a different accent. Not terribly disorienting, I have always found that annoying. Especially when a brother and sister have two totally different accents (as is the case here). When that happens, you know you're in trouble.Shut is pretty middle of the road as far as I'm concerned. The story is OK, but just OK. You'll spend the whole movie waiting for some plot twist or a good action sequence and then you'll be sadly disappointed when there isn't one. Or at least I was. But for what it is, a movie made on the cheap, it's...well...let's say it's "acceptable". None of the actors really stand out and the story is pretty lacking, but it's not without it's (slight) charm. Maybe a decent way to kill a rainy Sunday afternoon, but that's really about all the endorsement I'm willing to give it.
