After taking hostages in a Stockholm bank, ex-con Lars Nystrom demands the release of his old partner in crime from prison. As the situation escalates, Lars starts to let down his guard as he develops an uneasy bond with one of the female employees. The ever watchable Ethan Hawke is the best thing in this crime caper. It’s uneven and lacks the power of its premise but always manages to keep your attention hostage. (EMPIRE)
