Almost all the aviation stuff was bullshit.
I was going to put a list together of things that were wrong, but the list would be way too long. They had 10 tons of gold in a plane with 150 passengers? I think that's too much weight. They had panels "stuck" to their plane to make it stealthy? I think not. What did they use to attach them? What kind of material? One guy gets sucked out of the plane, with several others in the same compartment. They would be gone, too. And I don't think their airplane was real in any way. And, much, much, more.
But the story was interesting and the acting was pretty good. I would have given it a thumbs down, but the good guys won, so I couldn't do that.

A master thief and his crew is hired by Interpol to steal $500mil in gold bars. Both my wife and I are suckers for heist films and this one was a lot of fun. Completely unrealistic in practically everything they did, the action was still gloriously crazy, totally chaotic and exciting. And the segments in between were filled with likable characters and witty dialog that kept us smiling. I'm not normally a fan of Kevin Hart but he was excellent here as was everyone else ...except Sam Worthington. Once again, he felt miscast. Overall, effectively entertaining escapist entertainment. -- DrNostromo.com
