It is rather rare to find characters of crime thrillers being cleaners but the few that show up are very funny for the most part, people who have to clear the mess that others make. That is something that “The Clean Up Crew” emphasis the most on been a funny action movie, this upcoming film is a roller coaster with a bunch of normal people who wake up one day to a new reality, it tells the story about several workers of the crime scene clean up company who discover a briefcase full of money during their work which should not be extraordinary job for them turning it into one of their best days or at least temporarily. However, as everyone should be aware, in the process of criminal activities, nothing is that easy or plain.
This money is discovered by the characters and sets a series of events that thrust our heroes into the world of mafia but this time around as the target, assassins and corrupt policemen will be after them. It is a concept that instantly sparks action scene on everyone brain, which helps to provide a dopamine rush on the audience, a great way to wake them up but the problem is that now the film has to keep up with every action scene been better than the previous one. The main cast of the movie consists of such experienced actors as Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Antonio Banderas, and Melissa Leo, with Antonio they already hit it as we have seen him before playing the funny, ruthless, villain role. My expectations are a good one time watch as I call it, there is not much information about this film but you got a great cast with well known and bulletproof main cast, I can easily see that there will be nothing special about this film in terms of showing us something new to the heist sub genre but what interest me the most is how the cast is going to perform, heist concept is great add comedy and a good cast and you got a good movie as long as script and production goes along without been the greatest of all time.

In a sense reminds me of Statham movies where everyone wants to kill him at the same time, having some times an entire squad after him. The main characters have to deal with numerous dangers. You have a villainous mafia don who wants his money, paid killers who want to ensure the job is done right, and even some corrupt officers of the law who are after the money. Even though the premise seems to suggest a movie packed with entertaining action scenes, this film is much more than some car chases and gun battles. Many will argue if the movie has other message like we have seen on heist movies where greedy takes over the characters but it seems like this time around is backwards, this guys found something they were not looking for and for reasons that escape from their will they became the target, yes they can just give up the money but they still witness, the more people find out about it the more they get deeper involucrated with the money. The film appears to deal with some more issues more so the ethical issues that accompany the lives of average citizens when presented with large amounts of money, it is probably going to raise issues to do with betrayal, trust, and what individuals will do for a certain price when cornered.

This ideas are just to put in perspective how the movie might develop although I don't see this movie flooded with indirect messages, type of woke movie, none of the actors or director seem to have this inclination so any social commentary other than the more classic and traditional will disturb the course of the movie.
What looks like a small project, the budget has not been reveal neither, this movie will probably go under the radar of most people but as everything I have describe above it does look like a good time watch with a well seasoned cast. The concept of the movie is promising too as this might happen to average people, how many times people dont find hidden money on houses or a beach product that belongs to crime organizations, now days is not that rare. The presence of a powerful cast, a director with many years of experience behind him and an impressive plot that will probably contain both action, suspense and a comedy touch indicates that this film has a potential to deliver a good and rather entertaining experience to both the action movie fans.
I find it is always unwise to get carried away with upcoming movies, I prefer to know my enemy before hand, I mean learn a bit more about it before watch it. Now days time is a valuable asset and sitting down two hours to start watching something you wont enjoy and lets you down can ruin your afternoon, it has happen to me many times and its the main reason I do this "preview" post, none the less I think The Clean Up Crew (2024) will be a movie worth watching to have a good time.
