In Los Angeles, a team of robbers led by Ray Merrimen make a violent armed attack and hijack an armored truck. Police officers arrive on the scene and engage in a shootout with the robbers. Eventually, Merrimen and his crew escape with the empty armored truck. In the morning, Detective Nick O'Brien investigates the crime scene, having been monitoring Merrimen and his crew for a while. Suspecting a local bartender named Donnie for involvement, Nick finds him at the bar and kidnaps him for interrogation. Donnie reveals Merrimen is planning to rob the Federal Reserve on Friday of that week by covertly removing about $30 million in old bills which are scheduled to be shredded after their serial numbers are deleted from computer records

Very entertaining action movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout.
That's the German title of the movie - literally, not translated into English. I like Den of Thieves better, but whatever helps selling a movie, right? But back to this, because apart from changing the title, Germany also got an international version of the movie which was way shorter than the one that played in America (over 20 minutes. add to that another couple of minutes that were added to the Directors cut that came out and you have half an hour.
Fortunately that all got remedied when the Blu Ray came out and I got to see the whole version. And it really is a treat. Comparing it to Heat may feel like a cheat to some, but the shooutouts are there. The comraderie is there. And I guess you can see Butler and Schreiber as good opposites. But there is another element to it, which I won't talk about, which you'll probably like a lot. There is of course a chance you despise it for that, but I embraced it.
Good acting too, especially for an action packed movie like this. 150 minutes fly by like that. There may be a lack of likeable characters or rather a lot of despicable things that are being done, by bad and (supposedly) good guys - but the movie gets away with it.
