Where to Watch The Take
- JakeysDecember 30, 2025I watched this on recommendation from Leguizamarama, but didn't think much of it - definitely straight to DVD stuff. Leguizamo is a terrific actor and he sells his role as always, but the rest of the movie is just not very good. Especially the ending where John and Tyrese randomly wander around town in an exceptionally uninteresting final confrontation. It also just looks really unappealing, it has that ugly yellow filter and washed out colours, lots of claustrophic zoomed in shots and shaky cam... not good.
