Trivia:
The title is taken from the 18th century ballad "Do Ye Ken John Peel", a song about fox-hunting. It is presumably a rather obscure allusion to the way that the bank robbers have hunted down Hiller and won't let him go again. moreGoofs:
Continuity: The headlights on the car after it squeezes between two buildings. moreQuotes:
[the security sergeant is giving instructions to the young security guard who is watching a bank of CCTV monitors]Security Sergeant: That's down in the vaults that leads to the strongroom. Your job is to sit here and watch.
Young Security Guard: There's nothing to watch.
Security Sergeant: That's exactly how it should be. So if you see anything out of the ordinary, like people moving about, you come and tell me. All right?
Young Security Guard: All right, Sarge.
Security Sergeant: [sarcastically] You should pay particular attention to anyone wearing little black masks over their eyes and with sacks marked "Swag"!

This was a surprise for me, since I bought it for 99 cents at the local supermarket's video sale. Bernard Hill gives a fantastic performance, and the suspense was unbearable. The heist is great, as is the direction. I cannot believe I have never heard of this before, but I sure will recommend it to anyone who likes crime, computer, and English films.
