The Bank Job - An excellent caper film

Saw this one tonight and can recommend it. Directed well by Roger Donaldson and another good performance by Jason Statham. Good twists and turns in the storyline and based on a true story as well.

We're going to see it Sunday afternoon. I'm excited... there aren't exactly a plethora of movies worth seeing in the first few months of the year so you have to jump on the good ones as soon as possible. :goodie:

I agree Greg...slim pickings lately in movies.

I finally saw this movie last night, and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. It's almost two hours, but I was absorbed from the beginning and didn't check my watch (well, once). I like how it morphs from a heist caper to a gritty politicized thriller - it's got multiple storylines and characters that the movie takes about 30 minutes to establish - and how Jason Statham gave a solid performance without resorting to arse-kicking action moves more than once.
