WHEELMAN is one more example of less is more in filmmaking. This taut, low-budget crime thriller offers first-rate acting, suspense, and writing, and proves once again that filmmaking is really about the fundamentals of drama, not CGI in lieu of talent and imagination.
The premise, while "done before," doesn't bore. WHEELMAN manages to breathe new life into a classic plot, and because the action never leaves the car, you get to go along for a very thrilling ride.
There's not much to complain about in WHEELMAN. Netflix should aspire to this level of craftsmanship on every one of its productions.
