      Audience Member Seriously, a movie with Larry O'Donnell in it can only mean it's one of the top 10 most shatty incompetent films ever made. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Sure as good as part 1 , certanly when seeing that 10 days ago ...the lead caracters stayd so that was good for part 2...soon part 3 ! Good busy Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This was a superb sequel. The first film was a slow build and took a while to get going but this certainly makes up for it. Fast paced and tense from the start. Joel Kinnaman's character is no longer the cocky business student who thinks he knows it all, he's experienced the dark side of the world he found himself in the first movie and has adapted. There is one pot of money up for grabs and the central character's lives will cross many times through violence and betrayal in the most tense crime film of last year. Looking forward to the final chapter in what is turning out to be a quality crime trilogy. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Best out of the three..... Not sure why people hate it.... it s magnificient... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This is the second in a series of three and the least interesting of them. As the films go on, you start simply waiting for everyone to be killed. Jorge was better as a grungy type with long hair and street clothes: he lacks style in rich trappings. The big heist by a beefy, wordless gang is implausibly professional. The gothic theme seems like a strangely misplaced cameo borrowed from Scarface, or possibly the Addams family, and ending up somehow as a spaghetti western. But the moment you see the lovers smiling at each other from their ambulance stretchers, you know that it has lost the drift and the ending of film three is a shaky fantasy. Check the fringe: it's too much. The film is mostly bloody violence as entertainment, full of anti-heroes, yet, even then, the subtitles tone down some of the language, and it ends up wanting to be mainstream. Once again, it will fill in the time, but maybe Scandi crime is getting guilty of just cashing in now. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member The first movie barely held itself together but was very entertaining. This sequel lacks content and purpose, leaving just a depressing tragedy of heists gone wrong. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Tom Long Detroit News Thin, intense and yet somehow cool, Kinnaman is on his way to stardom, and it's easy to see how these movies gave him lift off. This is a tough, crackling crime story, well-executed and tense throughout. Rated: B Feb 21, 2014 Full Review Tom Russo Boston Globe A deep pool of underworld characters and a focus on multicultural tensions in Stockholm lend crime drama some added interest in "Easy Money: Hard to Kill" ... Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 20, 2014 Full Review Jessica Kiang The Playlist ...Easy Money: Hard To Kill does what sequels should-it widens the thematic playing area of the tale told so far, even while thinning out the cast further, and it makes us look forward, with only slightly tempered expectations, to installment 3. Rated: B Feb 14, 2014 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Though avoiding the pitfalls of many safe-bet sequels, it stands as a rather inconsequential bridge between two films. Rated: 2/5 Aug 29, 2019 Full Review Jamie S. Rich Oregonian Babak Najafi's film weaves together all these threads, crafting a desperate narrative with violence as the inevitable outcome. Rated: 2.5/5 Feb 24, 2014 Full Review Chris Klimek The Dissolve The picture isn't radically inventive; [but] it's taut and vivid. The grimy window it opens onto a desperate, dangerous lifestyle makes viewers feel like accomplices. Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 20, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews
