Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/17/23 Full Review Mike C This has to be one of Ritchie's best. The flow to this film was so fluid, it felt as though it all took place in only a few days. Extremely well done cinematograhy and slow build scenes just to name a few. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/09/23 Full Review Yash B As someone who enjoys a good heist movie, I think "The Bank Job" is a solid addition to the genre. I enjoyed this movie and the story kept my interest. I do feel the actual heist in the movie happens a bit quickly but the other elements of the story are still entertaining. The movie is based on real events so I can understand if that factored into how the story was told. I think the movie is a lot grittier than I expected and it kept me engaged throughout. Overall, this is a fun and interesting heist movie that consistently moves at a solid pace. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
