The Hurricane Heist is, yes, another disaster movie, but every now and again comes one which look like it’ll actually be fun, and this is one of those.
As an unstoppable and deadly hurricane bears down on the Gulf Coast of the US a mandatory emergency evacuation is underway clearing the city. The storm proves to be the perfect cover for a team of hackers to infiltrate a vulnerable Treasury facility and steal $600m.
Bracing himself for the impact of the hurricane, stormchaser and meteorologist Will (Toby Kebbell – Kong: Skull Island) finds himself caught up in the chaos and teams up with Casey (Maggie Grace – Taken 3), the only Treasury agent left standing and his wayward brother, Breeze (Ryan Kwanten – True Blood). Together they must stop the ruthless thieves from pulling of the heist of a lifetime and survive the storm of the century.
Directed by Rob Cohen (xXx, The Fast & the Furious, and one of my favourite ’90s actioners, Daylight),
Also stars: Ralph Ineson, Melissa Bolona, Ben Cross, Jamie Andrew Cutler
The Hurricane Heist is released in the UK on April 6th and is a Sky Cinema production, and I’m really looking forward to this.
