2025
I can see a pattern emerging here. Sam Worthington with his heists and Aaron Taylor-Johnson with his compunction for anything that might explode. While constructing a makeover of what seems to be a mishmash of The Bank Job and Man on A Ledge (yeah! I know) inside the hollowed-out shell of The Hurt Locker. Too many moving pieces that fly off the handle. A director the calibre of David Mackenzie has also ever so slowly been falling into another pattern, the kind Australian director Justin Kurzel once found himself in while gulping the Hollywood Kool-Aid slop; which means just like Kurzel did in recent past Mackenzie also has a fair chance of bouncing right back.
