Director: Olivier Megaton
Cast: Edgar Ramírez , Michael Pitt , Anna Brewster , Sean Cameron Michael , Nathan Lynn , Sharlto Copley , Patrick Bergin , Leandie Du Randt , Norman Anstey , James Richard Marshall
Plot: As a final response to terrorism and crime, the U.S. government plans to broadcast a signal making it impossible for anyone to knowingly commit unlawful acts. Graham Bricke (Edgar Ramírez), a career criminal who was never able to hit the big score, teams up with famous gangster progeny Kevin Cash (Michael C. Pitt), and black market hacker Shelby Dupree (Anna Brewster), to commit the heist of the century and the last crime in American history before the signal goes off.


My Movie Review: The movie is a dystopian action thriller that simply set bar low having 0% Rotten Tomatoes Critic Score but is still one of its most popular movies and most watched now! The Last Days of American Crime is taking risk putting action fast without having a decent plan to push through what's great about this is spontaneous action but no sense of it's achievement! Edgar Ramírez is looking tough and rough in this sci-fi heist action fantasia about the future of American fascism that often strike with explosions that hit and turn's resulting in few casualties! Michael Pitt and Anna Brewster are introduce to me I never knew this actors exists although its not their first time' this is the time they were recognize as eventually make name in more films:) What I like about this film is how gripping and gritty the action performances as I found myself having a fun watch it is a movie you can turn your brain off and watch the twist unfold its turns:)

More Description: The Last Days of American Crime is a 2020 American action thriller film directed by Olivier Megaton from a screenplay written by Karl Gajdusek, based on Rick Remender and Greg Tocchini's 2009 graphic novel of the same name. It stars Édgar Ramírez, Anna Brewster, Michael Pitt, Patrick Bergin, and Sharlto Copley. It was panned by critics, who labeled it as one of the worst films of all time, and also noted the film's release as unfortunate for coinciding with the George Floyd protests, due to its violent content and depictions of police brutality, and as of July 2020 holds a rare 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. In 2024, the U.S. government prepares to activate the American Peace Initiative (API) signal, “synaptic blocker” that will prevent the population from breaking the law. In Detroit, Graham Bricke leads a crew of bank robbers including his brother Rory, who begins a prison sentence. The API signal is tested while Bricke’s crew robs a bank, and one of the thieves Rory has killed himself in prison!
