Cool movie, but...


was it really necessary for Frank to be trained in close quarter combat? I get that he has guns in case someone he's looking to sell to might try to rip him off. But when he was going for Leo and his guys, it looked like he was a cop sneaking around. If he was ex-military prior to becoming a thief I could see it making sense. But he's just a thief.

Lol I think any person with common sense and is going in to someones house to kill them would do the same thing naturally. I sure would, what did you want him to do just walk in blindly and loudly and announce he's there?

And after all, Leo and his boys there were packed.
