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

 the Bank Job August 29, 2008
Stephen J. Pfister
I liked the movie there was alot of action. I love Jason Stratham I think he is a good actor. This movie was just one way of him just extending or not trapping himself in on role.
I would rent it first. August 29, 2008

Interesting story but I personally feel like it could have been made better. The trailor is a lot better then the movie. Probably my least favorite Jason Statham film.

I did like the movie. I have trouble with the British accents sometimes. Good acting.
 Excellent ! August 26, 2008
C. Brigden (Minot, ND)
This movie was really good! Lots of action, mystery and a part of history that was interesting to learn about. I understand, not everything in the movie was acurate but it was BASED around a real story - and that works for me. It was a R-rated movie for a reason(violence and sex). I was on the edge of my seat!
great movie August 26, 2008
D. Smith (Bethel, CT)
If like most tradtional action movies, this would be good one to get. I do not care for many action films, anymore but this one is pretty good. worth the 16 dollars or so. But if wait couple of months, bet you can get for 10 dollars in no time.
