Armored



The Story: Ty is the new guard for an armored truck company. When his veteran co-workers try to involve him in an inside heist, Ty has to make a hard decision. Will he go along with them and take the money, or will he risk his life to stop them?

   
Money can turn best friends into worst enemies. At least it does in Armored.

This is not your typical heist movie for two reasons. First, the line between the good guys and bad guys is thinner than Sarah Jessica Parker. Secondly, the audience follows the heist in real time, which builds some intense tension throughout the film.

Armored is by far, my favorite heist movie, mainly for its simplicity. The writer follows the most important screenwriting rule: don't waste the audience's time. This movie will grab your attention in the first ten minute and won't let it go until the big finale.
