Synopsis

The film directed by James Marsch and produced by Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner and Michelle Wright, focuses on a group of retired old men who decide to do a multi-million-pound robbery. At the beginning it was thought that the robbery was made by a group of specialized thieves, but it turned out that the thieves were in fact a group of old men in their 60?s or 70?s, who were bored and they wanted a sparkle of emotion in their lives. They consulted some books and decide to do the robbery entering into the Safe Deposit from Hatton Garden, where they stole a haul with a value of 200 million pounds. Starring Michael Cane, Tom Courtenay, Ray Winstone, Jim Broadbent, Charlie Cox, Paul Whitehouse, Michael Gambon y Francesca Annis, among others.

What the critics say average 5.0 from 4

  • 6.0 The TelegraphTim Ribey The film?s writing and acting have the grubby energy of good Pinter. In its worst though, it?s business-like and, for all the vivid performances, oddly bland Read
  • 5.0 EmpireNick De Semlyen Not all of the comedy lands, and the thrills are gentle at best (...) Solid, but sadly the results don?t exactly blow the bloody doors off Read
  • 5.0 VarietyGuy Lodge May please fans of Michael Caine and his seasoned co-stars, but it's a low-carat affair Read
