If you loved Heist, try Spartan

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by David Mamet, and they both carry the paranoid, raw mood tags, and they sit in Action / Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Heist, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Spartan is

A December highway humming with tractor-trailers. A woman’s voice crackles on a burner phone: I’m at the motel. Scott steps over crumpled fast-food wrappers, the lobby air thick with neon and rain. He’s here to bring back the missing girl, not bury the evidence next to her. The man who hired him already has blood on his shoes.
