I saw that a while back. I remember it being pretty decent. I need to see it again to see if I still think the same.

Some say they won't watch it because Kevin Spacey is in it.

I have no problem with his acting...the movie is good.

Probably no "screw" or "nut" either.

Maybe some Callaway drivers, but not sure if there's any golf in the movie.

I do think there are probably some bus and truck in the movie.

Reminds me of the folks that refuse to watch Tom Cruise movies because they don't like him. He may still be a nut, but he's an entertaining nut that makes some pretty great movies.

I suspect there are a bunch of rock/music stars that have done bad things, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to stop listening to . I'm sure that lots of sports teams have members that have done bad things, I wonder if those same folks stop watching games involving any/every sports team that has a member that's done something bad?

It's similar to removing statues of folks that did something years ago that we don't agree with now.

Much of the movie was filmed in Atlanta. The movie crew setup was just across the street from the building where I worked. The bank holdup was filmed over in Ashford-Dunwoody area off 285.

Two pics taken of the filming rig for some driving sequences that I took one afternoon. Jamie is visible in the front passenger seat.

Have you watched the movie since to see how it was all pieced together after the editing?

Lots of cameras/equipment on that Stang
Nice pics.

I want to say it was filmed at the old Bank of America across the street from perimeter Mall.

It’s interesting that it looks like they took the wheels off the red car, I guess to keep the ride height, with it sitting on the trailer.

^^^ I just took a guess on that.

The wheels were probably off to allow a more steady camera shot.

It sounded GREAT playing through the big speakers during the credits for those of us with a certain habit of staying until the bitter end when going to see movies like this in theatre.
