Action shot movement often not crisp

This movie was made in Vietnam, a place that one would not consider to be where quality films are made. The story is along the lines of "Ocean 11," where a group of unlikely partners get together in order to execute a very complex robbery. In this case, rather than stealing valuables that are physical, the target is assets expressed in cyber form, namely bitcoins. Not only do the perpetrators have to break into a secure vault, they must access a computer and transfer the bitcoins using a security device embedded in the target's ring, which he wears at all times. As in keeping with such movies, there are many special effects with the camera shot bouncing from location to location and person to person. The movement from action shot to action shot is not as crisp as viewers of Hollywood movies have come to expect. Yet, they are not bad. What makes the movie distinct from the others in the genre is that the ending is not formulaic. In other movies, the group of thieves successfully carries out the heist and then laughs their way to and sometimes into the credits. That is not the case here, the last part of the movie contains some very unexpected twists. One of the strongest features of the movie is the fact that the target assets are digital in form. Given that most monetary transfers in the world today are electronic, this is a new area of the big crime genre that must be explored in cinema.

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one

I watch Bitcoin Heist out of curiosity back in 2016 on Tet holiday because at the time it the only movie that available and it blows me away so much that I think it is one the best movie about heist and Bitcoin I ever know and turn out that the truth. The movie is competently made under the hand of director Ham Tran when it not only got the scale and feel of a big budget Hollywood heist movie like Mission Impossible and Now You See Me but it also got good characters that you learn to care about to back up. The characters got really good chemistry together and despite how much I hate Vietnamese slapstick humor in this movie they all put the comedy in the right place and at the right time that I can't help but smile every time it happens. It may not bring anything new to the genre but it sure the only heist movie that involving Bitcoin right now

Interesting ! Captivating !

I was looking for a good movie to watch, and found this movie. The movie is way more better than the main summary. For a Vietnamese movie, this movie is really awesome, even though i rarely watch Asian movies, but this one caught my attention. It has good story line with some up and down moment. It has some fresh ideas, good actors and actresses. I live in a country in Southeast Asia and this movie is lit. Lit. really lit compared to local movies. It is really comfortable to wave through the movie. The only downside for me is probably the main line of the story kinda similar to "Heist" movies nowadays.
