A former Army Ranger and struggling father turns to robbing McDonald’s restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs, earning him the nickname "Roofman." After escaping prison, he secretly lives inside a Toys “R” Us for six months, surviving undetected while planning his next move. But when he falls for a divorced mom drawn to his undeniable charm, his double life begins to unravel, setting off a compelling and suspenseful game of cat and mouse as his past closes in.

I don’t think this is winning any awards, but it was a well done story. It kept me interested, now I want to live off Peanut M&M’s inside a Toys R Us.

This is definitely one of my favorite 2025 movies! It was just as much fun watching it a second time around. Channing Tatum is such a great actor I loved him in this. I can’t believe this happened in real life it’s such an interesting but crazy story.
