Ok I don't get this movie. There is a credit card cloning machine which is not going to work in real life. The banks have particular data on them which is difficult to clone. I don't understand how it's an 8 minute fraud check when on a credit card fraud investigation site this has no mention.
Even so for creative license it keeps the tension going and was one of the better scenes in the movie. The movie had a lot of stereotypes with the chancer immigrant creating a credit card fraud business and his crew of mixed ethnic people.
It was not a good portray of migrants and the working-hard ethos which they produce. I felt that it was a bit generic and dated. The script had some good moments like when Emily gets attacked and shows some great composure in fine acting skills.
Aubrey Plaza can act and is gorgeous. Theo Rossi as the crime boss with a Lebanese parentage was interesting given his parentage is from Lebanon. At least those references were accurate. He can act too.
I like it when original people from countries are used as accents are important in movies and tv shows. Authentic people = good tv.
I'm just a bit stunned by the script-writing. So many times she would have been caught-checked and CCTV is in occurance. They made it interesting by visiting different stores in a week yet if you visit the same place x times in a month you're likely to be caught and placed in fraud.
The cards did not look real enough and they have an IP on them so you can backtrace. There was peotic licensing here for sure. I just felt that the storyline in general was very generic and the acting deserved better.
Internship job interview was just so stupid. She's obviously going to know about those being in her field and in debt. I don't get why that was there at all. I'm confused as the age she was playing as it was hard to figure out if she was mid-20's or early 30's or just-out-of-uni.
For the effect of the movie it was there but it didn't seem so realistic. It's an ok movie but nothing wow. Very repeatted formula. 6/10. Oh and store carparks are probably not the best places to sell stolen tv.
