I am not a big fan of Ben Affleck. I feel as thought once he become recognized as a decent actor that he went every friggin way at once and almost none of those directions were good. In recent years I have seen him focus on more of action oriented films and that is where I feel he belongs.

This is a story about a bunch of special forces dudes who decide to go to rob a drug lord in South America. Has this been done before? Sure... but I actually feel as though some of this was actually done well.

They know guns, they know tactics, they know how to get in and out quickly and undetected. They know exactly how to carry out this mission to a "T" (whatever that means.) but i suppose it wouldn't be much of a film if the one thing that exists for everyone wasn't able to eff them up a bit.

The fellas in the film are meant to be military buddies going way back. Lo" and behold a bit of money screws them up big time. This is not an inventive story-line, but the movie actually works except for a few problems.

The guys in the team, once timing becomes of paramount importance, argue and waste time constantly and they continue to do so throughout the rest of the film. At first it seemed like a distraction but later on it just becomes frustrating like.... "f**king move already! you know you are running out of time!"

While there are frustrating elements to the completely fictional film, overall I think it is actually pretty good. It carries the pace pretty well the entire way through the film and even though there are absurd, get-moving-already! moments in the movie it is actually done quite well.

The acting is good, the production value is good and I find this to be one of the better movies made by Netflix in the past 6 months or so. I don't like Affleck, so therefore I am probably being a bit meaner than is necessary.

On a scale of "Urgh!" to "Wowsers!" I give Triple Frontier the rating of........

Just below "Yip Yip Yip"
