Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Disney The Bank Job (Blu-ray) A small-time crook takeson a bank heist when an old friend offers him an inside track to the vault. Along with his hastily assembled team of low-rung criminals, Terry (Statham) finds himself deep into this real-life heist and quite suddenly the target of ruthless mobsters,the police, government officials at the highest level, and even the royal family.

Amazon.com:
A cheerful, energetic, and completely entertaining movie, The Bank Job follows some small-time hoods who think they’ve lucked into a big-time opportunity when they learn a bank’s security system will be temporarily suspended–little suspecting that they’re being manipulated by government agents for their own ends. The result is that the movie doubles its pleasures: While the robbery itself has the usual suspense of a heist film, when the robbery is over the hoods find themselves being hunted by the police, the government, and brutal criminal kingpins who were storing dangerous information in a safety deposit box. The Bank Job won’t win any awards, but it’s enormously fun. Director Roger Donaldson (No Way Out, Species) propels the action along with vigor, editing zippily with perfect clarity among multiple storylines and various colorful characters. Jason Statham (Snatch, The Transporter), as the leader of the bank robbers, successfully steps away from his usual bone-crunching roles to a more human presence. The rest of the cast–including Saffron Burrows (Deep Blue Sea), Keeley Hawes (Tipping the Velvet), David Suchet (Poirot), and many faces familiar from British film and television–give their characters the right degree of personality and flavor without getting fussy or detracting from the headlong rush of the story. A little sex, a lot of action, a sly sense of humor, and a twisty plot; if more movies had these basic pleasures, the world would be a happier place. –Bret Fetzer

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Good Caper Film Based on “The Baker Street Robbery”
“The Bank Job” may not be the greatest caper film ever made, but it is definitely a hugely entertaining one–that is, as long as you ignore plot holes and certain elements familiar in the gangster film genre. The heist film’s story, reportedly based on the real crime “The Baker Street Robbery” that happened in London in 1971, is a bit too complicated with subplots about the royal family, corrupt cops, honest cops, a brothel and a political activist, but the fast-paced film is always light and captivating … Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - oh, them crazy royals…
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of heist pictures, and if the heist picture also turns out to be a period piece, then my fan joy cup doth runneth over, brother! THE BANK JOB serves up grand larceny and its nasty aftermath. The film re-enacts the daring “true-to-life” robbery which went down in 1971, on Baker Street, East London. Back in the day, the Lloyds Bank heist made very big noise in British media, for a bit of time anyway, until the British authorities issued a D-Notice which effectively gagged the … Read More

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - ok flik
Statham is always great, but this movie was slow and boring. The only good part is that its a true story. And the English accents drove me crazy.

If you want a great movie, its not this one. Watch Street Kings!!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Surprisingly exciting
I didn’t know anything about this film prior to seeing it other than that it was based on a true story about a group of English petty criminals who decide to tunnel beneath a bank in order to rob safe deposit boxes. The heist is the idea of a woman played by Saffron Burrows, who has a specific and ulterior motive for wanting to rob a certain safe deposit box.

Jason Statham shows that he’s grown as an actor in this one. He’s moved beyond simply scowling and karate chopping people in the windpipe. … Read More

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Sexed up, but still boring
The Bank Job has more nudity and blatant semi-porn than any movie I’ve seen in a while. Unless you’re a thirteen year old male, or want to watch porn without the stigma of actually having to rent it, you might find this movie a bit boring. I’m all for period pieces that are free from cliched car chases, violent shoot-em ups, or two-dimensional characters, but sadly this movie lacks the former but without the compelling plot of a true drama. There is a haphazard quality to the film. At times I was expecting it … Read More
