Enredo
Você sabia?
- CuriosidadesWillem Holleeder (Sam Worthington) went on to become a kingpin in the Dutch underworld, being held responsible for ordering several contract killings, amongst which, the 2003 assassination of his former best friend and co-kidnapper Cor van Hout (Jim Stugess). When the film was released in 2015, Holleeder was in custody awaiting trial for many of those contracts, however, not in relation to the Cor van Hout case. In July 2019, Holleeder was found guilty of five murders and ordered to serve a life sentence.
- Erros de gravaçãoThe end-titling states that Mr. Heineken died in 2003. He died on the 3 January 2002.
- Citações
Freddy Heineken: There are two ways a man can be rich in this world, he can have a lot of money, or he can have a lot of friends. But he cannot have both.
- Cenas durante ou pós-créditosSPOILERS: Epilogue: "An anonymous tip first led the police to suspect Cor and his friends. The police never revealed who sent the tip or what it said. After his kidnapping, Freddy Heineken created one of the world's foremost private security firms. He died in 2003. Jan 'Cat' Boellard served 12 years. Martin 'Brakes' Erkamps served an 8-year sentence. Frans 'Spikes' Meijer escaped from a criminal psychiatric hospital and fled to Paraguay. Reporter Peter R. de Vries tracked him down 10 years later. He was extradited to the Netherlands to serve his time. Cor Van Hout and Willem Holleeder each received an 11-year sentence. Returning to crime, they rose to power to become the 'godfathers of the Netherlands.' In 2003, Cor was gunned down by an assassin. His killer was never identified. The ransom was the largest ever paid for an individual at the time. A significant portion of the money was never recovered. After the kidnappers divided the cash, they were never together again as a group."
- ConexõesVersion of O Sequestro de Heineken (2011)
Most of the positives surround Hopkins, he gives a masterclass in acting, his performance is understated and yet believable. Some of the best scenes in the movie revolve around his demands for Chinese food, books, Schubert etc, it's very random but enjoyable.
One entertaining moment when the team realise they've left the ransom note in a photocopier nearby.
Sadly the film didn't keep my attention, it's the kind of film you'll need a crossword or Sudoku puzzle. Unfortunately it is quite boring, the plot was a good one, I think possibly had some humour been added to it that may have helped, as a thriller it just doesn't work, there's no tension or drama caused, you never feel at any point that the gang truly mean business.
As for the accents, some of them wanted to go Dutch, some of them didn't, it felt inconsistent.
It could have been so good. I've only seen a trailer for the Dutch production, but that seems to have the atmosphere that was needed, this production is sadly a week old unwanted glass of Heineken, FLAT.
