Ambulance (2022)
Over one day across the streets of L.A., three lives will change forever in the breakneck thriller, Ambulance, from director, producer and master of explosions, Michael Bay, who’s given us big-boom blockbusters like The Rock, Bad Boys, and Armageddon.
Ambulance follows decorated veteran Will Sharp (Emmy winner Yahya Abdul-Mateen II from Candyman, and The Matrix Resurrections), who is dragged into an audacious bank heist by his adoptive brother Danny (Oscar nominee Jake Gyllenhaal from Zodiac and Spider-Man: Far From Home), a charismatic career criminal with his eye on a $32 million prize. But when their exit plan goes spectacularly wrong, the desperate brothers are forced to hijack an ambulance carrying ace EMT Cam Thompson (Eiza González from Baby Driver, and Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw) and her patient, a critically-wounded cop, in a bid to execute the most insane escape L.A. has ever seen.
Nominated for Best Thriller at the 2022 Saturn Awards, the film has over 36 million views for its official trailers on YouTube, with Globe and Mail saying, “Ambulance is here to remind you of the head-spinning delights of watching a genuine cinematic madman at work,” while MovieFreak.com says, “This crazed shot of pure melodramatically idiotic adrenaline was just what I needed, the thunderous roar of every engine a fast and furious joy worth getting excited about.”
