Netflix has just added Pain & Gain, the 2013 action crime movie from director Michael Bay (Ambulance, Bad Boys, The Rock).
Based on loosely on true events, the film centres around a crew of ripped Miami bodybuilders who score a high-rolling lifestyle through kidnapping and extortion.
“To achieve his goal, he recruits musclemen Paul and Adrian as accomplices. They abduct rich businessman Victor Kershaw and convince him to sign over all his assets to them.Bay, along with screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely , does great work placing the viewer into the mindset of its dumb, inept central trio and why they are driven to commit these criminal actions.
Pain & Gain is also noteworthy for its dynamic, stylish and vibrant direction and its packed supporting cast, which also includes a terrific Ed Harris as a PI who crosses paths with the bodybuilders, as well as Ken Jeong, Rebel Wilson and Rob Corddry.
