In Triple Frontier, the ‘plot’ aspects of the screenplay work well, but when the characters driving that plot are not fully-formed and layered, it seeps through.

...just when you think you have it figured out, it throws an unexpected but welcomed curveball.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 27, 2022

Chandor and Boal’s collaboration on Triple Frontier is the first blemish on their practically pristine resumes; a generic, by-the-numbers heist thriller camouflaged with a false social consciousness.

A lot of talent has been assembled for what amounts to a modest pleasure, and that cannot help but feel disappointing.

Full Review | Original Score: 46/100 | Sep 14, 2021

It might be a premise that's been done to death, but with a fantastic ensemble cast and a series of unexpected twists and turns - with one in particular sure to leave you shell-shocked - this one's well worth its "weight in gold."

A timely and heartfelt message deftly delivered.

Triple Frontier is as good a crime thriller as any movie fan could want, and one that demonstrates that Netflix is staking its claim as one of the premier movie studios.

The strong cast is able to bring enough shadings to their character types to keep our interest and a surprising third act make this a winner.

I am bored when I see the anonymous heroes punished by the mechanisms of insignificant patriotism and the wildest capitalism. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 6, 2020

On the one hand proving that Netflix is attracting top directors (J.C. Chandor), writers (Mark Boal) and actors (Ben Affleck), while on the other hand presenting a sweeping action-adventure that's reduced on a small screen.

The team's synergy is what keeps us connected.

Triple Frontier stumbles at the finish line.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Jul 8, 2020

Even if the characters' self-righteousness is a bit unconvincing, that's part of the point.

Triple Frontier borrows The Treasure of Sierra Madre's plot but lacks John Huston's fortitude to analyze and rightly judge the mercenaries.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Mar 8, 2020

Chandor teases the possibility of a sequel at the very last, but if this team decide to head back for part two there's quite a bit of work to be done to make it worthwhile.

Poor Affleck mostly hangs in the background while Hunnam and Hedlund do their weird flexing. Ben Affleck ends up being the least-grating actor in the ensemble.

For some reason, Triple Frontier's militarized masculinity works-in the way old Westerns worked.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 19, 2020

There are at least three or four good films buried within Triple Frontier but they went with the surface level stuff and called it a day.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Jan 8, 2020

Offers some nice surprises and while it doesn't end in the way you might expect it's an entertaining action drama.
