This film comes from a very dark place and it plays brilliantly with ideas of heroism and protagonist sympathy.
The heroes are morally bankrupt thieves, using a fathers security clearance to override burglar alarms and steal what they want. But the woman, Rocky, has good intentions, desperate to move out from her alcoholic and abusive mother's house and build a new life in California.
So as viewers, partition the crime, how far are we prepared to believe in Rocky and back her up? At first their crime seems utterly repugnant, robbing a blind war hero in his own home, but as the crime defends into chaos we discover that the blind man isn't exactly a fine upstanding citizen of sound character.
What follows is an excellent crime action thriller. Some well crafted Hitchcock inspired tension and full on action movie violence.
