I was really on the edge of my seat wondering whether he was gonna get his hot chocolate and pecan pie. But you’ll never guess what, he gets his hot chocolate and his pecan fucking pie, this writing is peakkkkk!!!!!!!
A wonderful little CHRISTMAS action movie with good old Ben Affleck and a reliable Gary Sinise
P.S Anyone who knows this movie as Deception is insane 😡

Mostly ass until the third act heist. Dennis Farina can mine gold from literally anything. Also, Charlize Theron gets an all-timer death that had me cackling.

6 months of leftovers is just greedy and disgusting Ben Affleck
Also the double twist was cool? Ig? Makes no fucking sense why she would play along i get it was to make Ben Affleck have lieutenant Dan go through with the plan? But I don’t think a truck stop bartender is that good of an actor. And what was with all the shit with 6 Santa’s and then it was 5 a she kept saying 5 like am I missing something? Who gives a fuck

(Theatrical Cut) A few parallel universes over, Shane Black and S. Craig Zahler are having a field day with this and it's fuckin glorious.
