The Bank Job is a highly-charged heist thriller based upon the infamous 1971 robbery that took place at the Lloyds Bank in Marylebone London. Starring Jason Stantham as Terry, a car dealer with a dodgy past and Saffron Burrows as Martine, the woman with the plan, The Bank Job interweaves corruption, murder and scandel with 1970's England! When Martine offers Terry a lead on a foolproof bank hit on London's Baker Street, he recognizes the opportunity of a lifetime! The plan: to target a roomful of safe deposit boxes worth millions in cash and jewelry. However Terry and his crew don't realize the boxes also contain a treasure trove of dirty secrets - secrets that will thrust them into a deadly web of corruption and illicit scandal that spans London's criminal underworld, the highest echelons of the British government, and the Royal Family itself.

Don't waste your time

mightymagnificent from from Edinburgh, 23rd July, 2008

A boring film with average acting and a not bad last 10 mins, but with nothing more to offer other than it was a true story

good entertainment

A Customer from Banbury, 20th August, 2008

A good solid British film based on true events which I vaguely remember, Jason Statham gives a good performance as usual and would recommend anybody to watch this.

Good Bad Guys and Bad Good Guys!

Hobes from from Maidwell, 18th September, 2008

Statham's best film since Snatch! I enjoyed this from start to finish. It had the feel of a 'Good old Cockney caper' the Bad Guys are the Good Guys and the Good Guys are really Bad Guys! It all seemed a little far fetched to be a true story, but It wouldn't be the first film to let a little thing like the facts get in the way of a good movie. I'm off to research this robbery on the internet. Watch it, you'll enjoy it!

A fun English thriller

Begonia from from Ascot, 28th September, 2008

A raunchy moment just at the beginning that upset my wife, does not fortunately set the pattern to follow. An enjoyable film

dated.

swinn from from Preston, 27th September, 2008

this film takes a while to get going but not a bad film. the only gripe is the films from 60s 70s 80s seem more dated .
