"Fantastic! Full of action. Great story. Amazing acting all around. The French sure can riot ;) AND Idris Elba perfects every role he’s in. "

"On Netflix, this movie is called The Take. "For its UK DVD release, the film will have a title change. It was released in cinemas in the UK as "Bastille Day". The film has been re-titled "The Take" for DVD there, due to the real-life 14th July 2016 Bastille Day attack occurring between its theatrical and home video releases."
I recently received a notification telling me which movies/shows are leaving Netflix this month so I'm trying to watch the ones I have on my list. Only a few minutes into this movie, I could already tell I'd seen it before, but I decided to watch it again since I didn't remember much. You would think that, if I couldn't remember much, it must not have been a very good movie but it's actually quite good. I watch a lot of movies so it's not always easy for me to remember many of them.
I enjoyed the plot and the performances. It wasn't unique but it was interesting. Just go in blind. It's not hard to figure it out and it's more fun that way.
