Thief
The first half of this movie felt kinda like a book I read by a Chinese author and the translation was a little shaky - you could tell by how people spoke to each other and the mannerisms they used that it wasn’t originally English. For some reason the way Frank spoke/acted and how 80s this movie was felt so bizarre I felt like I was trying to keep up with something mistranslated.
Then the back half is the most electric crime thriller ever put on screen. Frank did what Neil McCauley couldn’t, walked out on something in 30 seconds flat when he saw the heat coming around the corner. This movie rocks.
