It\u2019s such a breath of fresh air when Hollywood releases original films. With all these yawn-worthy reboots and lackluster sequels coming out lately, I always find myself charmed by movies with utterly unique concepts. Roofman, starring Channing Tatum<\/strong>, is most definitely one of these \u201cbreath of fresh air\u201d movies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n It already has a generous 83% rating on Rotten Tomatoes<\/strong>, which marks the upcoming movie as Tatum\u2019s highest-rated role in a decade. As a big Tatum fan myself, I\u2019m personally thrilled for Roofman. But what\u2019s it about?<\/p>\n roofman | Paramount Pictures<\/p>\n The movie tells the unique story of a gentleman nicknamed \u201cRoofman,\u201d who’s an escaped convict. He is notorious for his robberies of McDonald’s restaurants, where he\u2019s able to access the fast food chain by drilling into the roof. Hence, his nickname.<\/p>\n When he escapes prison, he\u2019s instructed to hide somewhere where no one will suspect to find him. That\u2019s when he decides to camp out inside a Toys R Us for a whopping six months, where he manages to live that whole time.<\/p>\n roofman cast | Paramount Pictures<\/p>\n The movie boasts a stellar cast to act alongside Channing Tatum, including Kirsten Duntz and Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage.

There is, in fact, a roofman who successfully robbed multiple chains between 1997 and 2005. What makes him stand out is the fact that he\u2019s deemed a kind-hearted robber who actually cares about the well-being of the individuals he\u2019s robbing. Sounds like a total oxymoron, but it makes for an unforgettable character if you ask me.<\/p>\n
