A bank heist film that deserves to be mentioned among the best.
It took me a long time to watch this film, as I thought it was just another typical cheesy Jason Statham movie with an uninspired title. It most definitely isn't. It almost has a Guy Ritchie feel to it (though that could just be because it stars Statham and is set in 1970's England). I loved that the heist is not the climax, it's the fallout. Another aspect that makes this a cool film, is that it's based on a true story.
'The Bank Job' is one of Statham's best as a leading character. David Suchet as Lew Vogel was another character that I found was very well done.
