Stander (2003)
7.0
Movie
TLDR
It’s a cool biopic, but maybe because it’s mostly a heist film than a biopic.
What it's about
The take
Crime films usually have cops chase down robbers, not become them. This quirk in Andre Stander’s life makes him the perfect subject for a biopic, as this life-changing career shift must have had a compelling motivation. It’s certainly a great reason to make awesome action sequences, daring escapes, and, of course, the swindling scenes. It’s fun to watch. However, as the plot progresses, and the crimes get bigger and bigger, the film ends up losing sight of its main character, paying more attention to the capers instead of the reason behind it, and whether or not that reason is true. Stander is a heist film that forgets it’s a biopic, but it’s more fun because of it.
