One doesn't need'a be a fan of AOD to love this movie. It could be a stand alone one, and indeed quite an impressively original one. A cracker + hacker + driver + gunner + master combo = commercially guaranteed. Yet if u r a fan of AOD, bingo! U got it. It makes perfect sense to be a satisfactory prequel. So my humble opinion is that no mater how u consider the positioning of this movie, it is a successful one.
If I come to my senses n really need'a be picky, I'd erase the little romance of the story coz it makes the plot line off-track a little bit. But for what it's worth, that's kinda super minor and that a little romance isn't a real drawback of the whole story. It just isn't that big deal n it mustn't become the core of the movie theme.
The sense of humour isn't the cup of tea for everyone, granted. However, the German sense of humour is by all means an expected component of a weirdo safecracker. Dig it.
The ending isn't perfect. Personally I think we need Army of Thieves "TWO" to fill the gap. You know, AOT and AOD are not so well linked. Lots of missing links there.
I definitely wound recommend my friends to watch it. Frankly, the theme is rare n intriguing and the pace is tense. The locks' mechanisms are stunning. Marvellous!!! Take it to the bank.
