Synopsis:

US] The Bank Job (2008) - Martine offers Terry a lead on a foolproof bank  hit on London's Baker Street. She targets a roomful of safe deposit boxes  worth millions in cash

In September 1971, a daring group of criminals tunneled their way into a bank on Baker Street in London, stealing over three million pounds worth of cash and valuables from safety deposit boxes. The heist quickly made headlines, but the story mysteriously vanished after a few days due to a 'D' Notice, which barred the media from reporting on it. This film uncovers the hidden truths behind the robbery, revealing a web of murder, corruption, and a scandal tied to the British Royal Family—where, ironically, the thieves may have been the most innocent involved.

Critics' Reviews:

  • Jim Emerson, rogerebert.com: "A typical B-grade British heist film, 'The Bank Job' is neither better nor worse than its generic title (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)."

  • Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter: "A crime drama that is slow-paced and often difficult to follow, never fully realizing the potential of its intriguing premise."
  • Claudia Puig, USA Today: "Imagine a mix of 'Snatch,' 'Ocean’s 11,' and 'The Italian Job,' combined with real-life events involving national security and political corruption. The result is 'The Bank Job' (...) Rating: ★★★.
  • Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal: "A captivating exploration of morality across various strata of British society."
  • Leslie Felperin, Variety: "An engaging, though not exceptional, period thriller."
  • James Berardinelli, ReelViews: "Smart, well-paced, and thrilling entertainment aimed at an adult audience."
