Triple 9





Cast: Casey Affleck(Chris), Chiwetel Ejiofor(Michael), Woody Harrelson(Seargent), Kate Winslet(Irina), Anthony Mackie(Marcus),Aaron Paul(Gabe), Norman Reedus(Russell), Clifton Collins, Jr.(Franco), Luis Da Silva(Luis Pinto) and Gal Gadot(Elena)
Director: John Hillcoat
Genre: Crime, Action, Drama




Unusual but an impressive crime story. A good watch with right expectations!




You may look forward to:
  • John Hillcoat is the man of the film. The story of the film is very meaty. The content is interesting and so is the presentation. The film feels a lot like coming out of the under dogs of the society with shady characters. It wont feel like a regular crime/action entertainer with a hero in the picture. The story feels very close to the real life scenarios in the low lying areas of the United States
  • Casey Affleck is the only apparent positive role in the movie which makes him a hero like figure, but he is more or less a supporting role
  • Chiwetel Ejiofor has always been my personal favorite. This is the first time that i am seeing him in a grey shade, and he never falls short in impressing you
  • Kate Winslet is just ravishingly amazing. This lady has so much potential, untapped. I absolutely loved her in negative roles every time
  • Woody Harrelson, Anthony Mackie, Aaron Paul are the known faces from all the big league flicks. They perform pretty well
  • Clifton Collins, Jr., Luis Da Silva and Gal Gadot are the other supporting roles who have their significant bit in the story








The dampeners you should be aware of:

If you are expecting it to be an entertaining action film, then you are in for a disappointment. This film doesn't claim high on hard core action scenes. Although this may not be a dampener, but this makes the film less qualifying to greater audience




My Rating: 3/5

1- Poor  2-Average  3-Good  4-Very Good  5- Outstanding
