Marvellously cerebral heist film, 28 May 2000
10/10
Author: Holly (aromatic@ivillage.com) from New York, NY

Tony Curtis gives one of the best performances of his career as the mastermind of an armoured car robbery. This movie avoids cliches and goes straight to original character development while paying meticulous detail to the orchestration of the caper. Thoroughly absorbing from every standpoint.
