The Hurricane Heist

This one feels as though it belongs on the Syfy Channel alongside the likes of Sharknado, but it’s actually budgeted at $35m – some of which could at least have been spent on the script – and directed by Rob Cohen, whose credits include the first Fast and the Furious flick. Plot? As it says on the tin, a bunch of wrong ‘uns use a category 5 hurricane as their cover to pull off the heist of the century.

This one tanked in the US, where Variety‘s chortling reviewer described it as “the best-worst movie of 2018”, going to to observe that: “All three of our heroes take time out in the middle of survival situations to discuss their undying love of football and the Second Amendment, but they also believe in climate change. If our divided country can’t come together over a movie this wonderfully terrible, what hope do we really have?”
