Triple 9

The code on the street is never black and white


Triple 9
A crew of dirty cops is blackmailed by the Russian mob to execute a virtually impossible heist and the only way to pull it off is to manufacture a 999, police code for ''officer down.'' Their plan is turned upside down when the unsuspecting rookie they set up to die foils the attack, triggering a breakneck action-packed finale tangled with double-crosses, greed and revenge.

What the Critics say

Cape Times
Todd McCarthy quote iconInstant immersion
15
ScreenIt
Jim Judy quote iconCoupled with the lack of exposition or character explanation and some bad editing in and outside the action scenes, Triple 9 wastes both its impressive cast and the viewer's time in watching things unfold in a less than fascinating or engaging fashion.

Rottentomatoes tomatometer
Tomatometer quote icon Triple 9's pulpy potboiler thrills don't quite live up to the ferocious talents of its cast, but the film's efficient, solidly crafted genre fun is often enough to balance its troublesome flaws.
