Our take
The Gentleman Thief is a VOD heist sequel starring John Travolta about a retired thief pulled into a Miami yacht caper. Expect gunfire, explosions, and con-artist scheming with little blood. Critics widely panned the script, but violence stays typical of lightweight crime capers
Uplifting themes
Brotherly loyalty appears, but crime and cons dominate the story Travolta's retired thief protects his brother yet remains a career criminal
Story (may spoil tone)
A retired master thief must protect his impulsive brother from disaster when a 100 million dollar yacht heist spirals into a dangerous web of deception. Old foes emerge as the stakes rise, forcing him to use every trick he knows to stay alive.
