Five post grads figure the best way to get back at the unfair economy and live the life they've always wanted is to steal from the rich and give to themselves.
A disillusioned college graduate, struggling with student debt and a lack of future prospects, is drawn into an underground art collective known as the "Echo Boomers." This group, led by a charismatic figure, orchestrates elaborate heists targeting wealthy and unethical individuals. As the heists escalate, the protagonist finds himself entangled in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the authorities and the darker elements within the collective.
Echo Boomers received a mixed to negative reception from critics, who often pointed to its derivative plot and uneven tone. While some praised the ambition and the performances of Michael Shannon and Patrick Schwarzenegger, many found the film to be an uninspired take on heist thrillers and social commentary, ultimately failing to deliver a compelling narrative.
Google audience: Audience reviews generally found the film to be a middling heist thriller with some engaging moments, but ultimately felt it was unoriginal and lacked depth. While some appreciated the action sequences, many viewers expressed disappointment with the predictable storyline and underdeveloped characters.
The film was inspired by a series of real-life 'flash mob' style robberies that occurred in major cities, though the plot significantly fictionalizes these events for dramatic effect.
