The Bank Job

I was bound to like it since Jason Statham is one of my favorite actors...he's just an entertaining guy. His role in The Bank Job reminded me of his role in Snatch...he had a proper accent and the whole movie was dripping with GORGEOUS cinematography. The movie really felt like it took place in the 1970s.

The Bank Job was a movie I kind of ignored when it came out, and it went fairly unnoticed but it was just a great overall film. The plot is that Statham is given details on a bank heist, so they rob the bank...and by doing so they get MI5 or MI6, the police, and the mob all chasing after them. The movie is paced fairly slow, and there isn't a ton of big explosions. So if you're the Transformers 2 type of moron who needs your action in excess, don't watch The Bank Job.

It was based on a true story too...and the movie really went after all the scandals. Very good film.
