Masterminds: one of the Most Anticipated Films This Summer
Sharjil Hossain
Make this summer a worthy one after you watch Masterminds. Yes, this movie is surely going to keep the audiences glued to their seats. Based on a true story the plot of this comedy film circulates the 1997 robbery at the Loomis Fargo Company in North Carolina. It was recorded as the 2nd largest bank robbery on US territory at the time though the burglary was operated by some amateur criminals. Mastermind features a star-studded cast like Zach Galifianakis, Kristen Wiig, Owen Wilson, Jason Sudeikis, Leslie Jones and more. Spoiler alert: David Ghantt (Galifianakis) who is an armoured truck driver gets induced by Kelly Campbell (Wiig) to get away with $17.3 million. Then the film takes its twists and turns as they commit silly and hilarious mistakes which turn out to be a sheer comedy. By watching the trailer one can judge the movie by which it seems elementary but eventually a successful blend of comedy and action genres. Although Wiig, Galifianakis and Wilsons individual performances may not be Oscar-winning, still they delivered their best to keep the viewers pumped up. Another reason for it being the centre of attraction is the presence of the talented director Jared Hess. With the aforementioned star cast keep your fingers crossed which perhaps can have the makings of this summers dark horse comedy triumph story. Mastermind is set for an August 19, 2015 theater release.
