Summary:

A father and son, both working as security guards for an armored truck company, find themselves trapped inside their vehicle after it's ambushed by a team of ruthless thieves during a perilous route, forcing them to fight for survival.

Review:

While 'Armor' leans heavily on the familiar 'trapped-in-a-box' action trope, it delivers a reasonably tense B-movie experience. Sylvester Stallone brings his expected gravitas, and the claustrophobic setting effectively ramps up the stakes. It doesn't reinvent the wheel, but offers solid, contained action, elevated by the presence of its veteran star.

Audience Recommendation:

Recommended for fans of Sylvester Stallone, contained action thrillers, heist movies gone wrong, and straightforward survival stories.

Themes:

The film explores themes of survival against overwhelming odds, the strength of familial bonds under duress, desperation, and the vulnerability found even within supposed security.

Fun Facts:

• The film marks the feature directorial debut for Justin Routt.

• Much of the action is intentionally confined to the interior of the armored truck to enhance the feeling of claustrophobia.

• Sylvester Stallone and Jason Patric star as the central father-son duo facing the siege.
