"Go out and catch some bad guys, detectives!"Triple 9 is an astonishingly tense thriller, where moral lines are not so much blurred as thrown out of the window, and the sheer relentless pace and development of narrative keep you riveted from start to finish. This long-gestating film has gone through various cast changes - for the better, it must be said - and has a magnificent ensemble cast; as well as red-hot individual performances from the likes of Mackie and Harrelson for example, the scenes pairing top-of-their-game Ejiofor and Winslet are superb. Excellent editing, wonderfully lensed and superbly scored by Atticus Ross and co, Triple 9 weaves a stunning tale of the underbelly of criminals and corrupt cops in Atlanta in what is a genuinely absorbing, exciting and utterly exhausting thriller.
