(2026) Masterplan - Very Standard Heist Movie with Nothing that Truly Excelled

I read an article somewhere that there would be new movie released in Prime Video on Friday. Since it was about a heist and the premise looked interesting, I was intrigued to find out. However I came home rather late on Friday after my movie marathon and thought it would be better to watch it on the following day when I was fresher. OK, let us get on with the movie then.

Brief Story Line

Jay (Victor Belmondo - Lie With Me, Fly Me Away etc) and Chiara (Simona Tabasco - Immaculate, The White Lotus season 2 etc) were both professional thieves who had their own specialty. When they were recruited by a mysterious person who later revealed to them as master thief Roger (Stanley Tucci - The Devil Wears Prada 2, Fountain of Youth etc) to steal the famous painting Mona Lisa, Jay and Chiara were skeptical at first. But after Roger informed them that they were his children and believed they could pull the heist as a family, they finally agreed to work on it.

Whalefall - An Interesting Survival Thriller Movie in Unexpected Location

For our second movie marathon, we saw this one that was released on Wednesday. It was something that interest me due to its premise. It was playing in the cinema very near our home so even though we chose the 5 PM show, it was not inconvenient to return home after it was finished. All right then, let's just get on with it.

Brief Story Line

A year after the death of his father Mitt (Josh Brolin - Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, Sicario: Day of the Soldado etc), Jay (Austin Abrams - Resident Evil 2026, Do Revenge etc) returned to his home town. He was reunited with his mother Zara (Elisabeth Shue - The Boys TV series, Leaving Las Vegas etc) and his two older sisters Eva (Jane Levy - Castle Rock TV series, Monster Trucks etc) and Nan (Emily Rudd - One Piece live action series, Fear Street Part 2: 1978 etc).

Apparently Jay had a personal mission of searching for his father's remains in the sea. While doing so, he was somehow gotten swallowed by a sperm whale and with less than an hour of oxygen, Jay had to find way to save himself.

After playing in the cinemas for two days, I finally got the chance to see this one today. As I was busy in the past few days, I was also playing catch up and decided for movie marathon with this being the first. In fact I began writing this while waiting for the next film though I only finished it afterwards. Without further ado, here's more on the movie.

Brief Story Line

Ken Masters (Noah Centineo - The Recruit TV series, To All the Boys movies etc) and Ryu (Andrew Koji - Steal mini series, Bullet Train etc) were two great fighters who were best friends since childhood and both learned martial arts from their master Gouken (Don Lee aka Ma Dong-seok - The Roundup: Punishment, Train to Busan etc). After the world tournament in 1987, Ryu had gone to seclusion while Ken became more known in various advertisements and managed by his friend Dan (Andrew Schulz - Upgraded, Benders TV series etc).
