Fuze

Where this film succeeds is in its fast-cutting tension, evoking the grittiness and violence of a 1970s heist flick. The opening hour, which keeps things contained to a literal ticking time bomb, a tense bank job, and the law enforcement overseeing it all, feel like the film’s strongest suit. It's almost a shame it doesn’t keep that energy going. Still, Mackenzie’s direction is solidly edgy, continuing the mood he developed so successfully in Relay.
