Movie Reviews of Stander

Movie Review: STANDER stands alone!
Summary: 4 Stars

Wow, what an excellent surprise this movie was. Rented it, not expecting such a well told tale, with lots of emotion and action.
And it is based on a true story, to boot! Thomas Jane steals this movie, hands down. Even though there are several excellent actors in this movie. He acted here with a more rich-filled script than obviously The Punisher gave him.
Which is another movie that wasn't bad.
But this is no Punisher. It is an excellent and well told story, filled with raw emotions and solid pacing.
I've seen much worse films in the theater!
The ending is very anticlimatic, very moving and engaging.
Do yourself a favor, buy or rent this one...but watch it. Excellent in all areas.

Movie Review: this is a good watch
Summary: 4 Stars

Of course you should like the Actor and yes I like this actor he is very under-rated. If you saw the Sweetest Thing then you know he has range. If you saw Punisher then he does better here. This story follows the Andre Stander real story pretty much to a tee, As some critics say you seen one bank robbery you seen them alland mabe they hung a little much on that, but still leaves enough story for this to be watched more than once which I would give it high ratings for. Well done, good acting all around and entertaining to watch..

Movie Review: One of 2004 most underated and unnoticed greats!
Summary: 4 Stars

This movie wasn't promoted a lot, and of course not a lot of people saw it or even rent it, but I asure, it's a great movie. It's based on a true story of the life of Andre Stander. South African police who saw corruption and decided to turn Bank robber to prove it. The problem is that he got too much into it. I'm not familiar with the casts, but it's a great performance from all. I will recomand this movie for those who like true life story. Again, Good story, good performance, lots of actions and emotional ending.

Movie Review: Thomas Janes Best
Summary: 4 Stars

I had never heard of this movie but saw a program on Court TV about the real story of Andre Stander. I then found out that Thomas Jane had made a movie about it and thought I would check it out. This was a very good movie. I enjoyed it very much. Thomas Jane was excellent as was the rest of the cast. It is a very interesting story that is made even more interesting because it is true. It has political insight into the South African culture and also has a lot of action.

Check this movie out!

Movie Review: Stander is great
Summary: 4 Stars

Stander is a great movie, and Jane proves he is a great actor. I don't know much about the history of the movie or how accurate its telling was to the true story, but it keeps your interest from the beginning. I recommend the movie to anyone who likes crime movies or action. It gets a bit slow from time to time, but Jane's portrayal of someone disillusioned with his life keeps you locked into the plot.
