So now I'm retarded because I hate the bad guy and thought the movie sucked and didn't make sense to me even though it probably did to you? Or is it because you liked the movie for having violence and guns In it and you're willing to crush anyone who doesn't? Move on man. I posted my comment years ago...
This movie wasn't good in my opinion. Why did he rob the bank first of all? I hate characters that pretend to be know it alls and try to teach the world some pointless lesson even though he's just some stupid nutjob who got lucky. I would totally hunt him down and drag him to jail.
@Dusk557 he got the diamonds retard, he did it for money and to convict that asshole bank owner who was in cahoots when the nazis were in power. Try paying attention next time.
@MrLakerMike It's because he's a non-doer - he sits back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically about how the doers are doing. It's a sad world we live in.
How wrong can 2, supposedly intelligent, critics be? They are entitled to their opinions but their tone in so smug, condescending and belittling. THey want characters explained? Can someone explain to ME how these 2 characters ever got their own TV show???????????
This movie goes a way you don't expect (plotwise), it transcends all cliches (new york, racial, bank robbery, and otherwise) and even the intro/ending music (the Bollywood song) was pretty good.
Sometimes people miss what a movie critic is really doing. If a movie is good, that's up to you. A film critic CRITICIZES the movie. They point out bad things and good things, and talk about the bad things and how they could have been good things. Why? Because they can.. XD
They said this movie did a horrible job with information. They didn't tell us why he robbed the bank, how Jody blackmailed the bank owner, etc. Practically all of what they said that wasn't there was right in your face. These people need to learn how to watch a movie or at least watch the movie before they can even consider criticizing it.
Well about the "repeats himself" critique, the movie begins in medias res, or with a flashforward. The line is shown later, not physically repeated by the character. Also, we find out enough information about Dalton Russel and we are enough into about him to still follow his humanities without the background information requested by these critics.
We're looking for volunteers to participate in a university study of Inside Man and its spectatorship. The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete. Research results will be shared in the future. Just cut & paste the following link (and take out the spaces) to get to the survey. Thanks!

i think in terms of those details they are right in a sense, but, somehow i prefer that i don't know how the fuck jodie got all this power, and as for not knowing who clive owen is - i couldn't care less because the movie was entertaining. I love that moment before he beats up the guy who tries to hide the fone when you see him weighing up the options; and the 'flashforward' interview scenes were genius This movie is about characters and newyorkisms it explains the past when it needs to for me
Really great Drama/Thriller. Clive Owen was brilliant here - smart and elusive. Jodie Foster was the main trophy here - this movie wouldn't be that great without her. Denzel Washington was great as always.
Don't agree with this review, but hey, it's just an opinion. Mine is that all the clues are there as to character identity, and the background thread of the plot. The fact it isn't spoon-fed to the audience is what gives this film it's credibility, and shouldn't be held against it. That's nothing short of penalising it for not having a patronising, tired and predictable exposition device that treats you like a toddler.
anyways with that sed the robbers are not caught, they build a fake wall an hide in the bank after dressing all the hostages the same as themselves, an once the vaults are open they send all the hostages running out they now all have to be interviewed because the cops are assuming the robbers are amongst the hostages surrendering
I thought it was a gay porno at first haha , this movie is brilliant guys ,one of my all time favourites BUT! i suggest a rental unless ur a dvd collector because when all is revealed theres no goin back,i wish i could remove my memory of this movie!
OK these 2 guys obvious don't have anything better to do than to relate this film to several other things that really don't mean anything. The film was able to do something that can be hard to do. This is to trick the viewer from the plot "rail" they're on and outsmart their prediction about how the movie will finish.
dont worry man, these 2 assholes are too old to know a good movie when they see one. they just cant comprehend the greatness of what this movie really is.
why do people hire movie critics that are too old to like great action movies and robbery movies and stuff? coz they are stupid thats why lol
How did Clive Owen go from masterpeices like this to OKAY movies like Shoot Em' Up? Also,how did these assholes think that this was a bad movie?! I watched this on USA not long ago and i was blown away!! There was comedy,realism,a little action,it really captured the new york feel,had twist like nobody's buiness,and much more.
if anyone has the brains to actually understand the moive, then theyll know that this movie is friggen ahmazing. one of the best heists films iv seen ever! these guys r just freakin retards.
They're just there to get attention, pretending to be very knowledgeable but in the end the real deal is that this movie is great and we just get to see them because we like the film in the first place.... Subjectivism aside and seeing this movie objectively, it is indeed a great achievement.. For those who 'get' the movie which I reckon there are a lot, this movie would be one of the best...
stupied mother fucking fat cunt sucking piece of shitt. He fucking does NOT repeat himself. The movie rewinds, befuckingcause he sais exactly the saime words. HOW LOW IS YOU IQ fatman ?
i heard there is a little boy in a bank robbery scene and he is really funny he's like playing 50 cent bulletproof on his psp and he has a shirt that says DEFEND BROOKLYN
Actually the critics have a point there when it comes to Foster's unexplained imortance and surely there were some holes concerning the holistic work, but the approach of the heist was just very new and refreshing to me, so I overlook these lapses and found the movie was great work
I have a question. can anyone tell me what the specific name of the masks of the robbers is. The masks that the robbers wear, ya know? What are they called?? And if so, where can I get them? Dont worry, I don't plan on robbing a bank. I just want to know what they're called.
worst film he's ever made? WTF. These critics sound like idiots. And how come most of them are bitter, old fat and unattractive? And these guys sound like morons.
I agree with the lack of background on some of the characters making things feel a little off sometimes, but overall I REALLY liked this movie. I thought the plot was unique, the parts well acted, and I loved the twist at the end. (Even though they told us at the beginning the twist was coming, it was still great.) I would definitely recommend it, and the soundtrack is awesome.
we don't know where and why they are exactly from, but they have a MISSION, which is what count for the director.
Ant of them draw a line in where INTEREST ends a RESPECT starts. Madeleine knows it, Dalton knows it and also the Bank President Knows it EXACTLY..and that's exactly why the whole story starts and ends..
I don't see how these 2 ignorant can name themeselves movie critics.. Number one for any test (be it a poetry, a movie script or the power of a character..) to be named "art" is when it doesn't need to describe the whole background to deliver a message.. that's the beauty in all INSIDE MAN characters..
Brick-a-brack?? Stereotypical acting?? Worst Spike Lee movie?????? Tremendous disappointment?? These established movie critics suck balls....same thing goes for those idiots Ebert & Roeper who said Oliver Stone's fabulous 'Alexander' sucked and his ridiculous movie about the twin towers thingie was great
These Old fucks are Nobodys they are fucking insignificant pieces of shit...here is something to ask yourselves old men..have you directed a better film?are you a director at all period?are you known for being able to come up with a film half as good as this one you have rated so poorly or a film even remotely good?No NO and more NO's shut the fuck up!!!!!
no one gives a shit about ya fatass..i've never even heard of you guys till now you fuckin homos don't think your da shit..honestly i wanna see you make a movie this genius
I couldent of said it better. fuck that bullshit those old ass men are talking about what do they know they look at the stupid and dont even bother to look at the story great story I loved it. who cares about the backround it doesnt matter, what Dalton did as a kid has nothing to do with why hes robbing a New York City back in 2006 al in all RVLVNGDRS said it best
Why are fat/old/grumpy men reviewing a very entertaining movie? Everything the guy on the right says is completely false....just....wrong. Yes Dalton DOES repeat himself in the end, but when you says something like "Spike just throws in a bunch of predictably clever...blablabla...into the film..." you're just being an idiot. This IS a clever film and anyone who believes this bullcrap is simply being fooled.
To hell with these two, Inside man is one of my all time favorite relatively new movies.
