Storyline
Failed parole officer Steve Garden (Coogan) is framed for a murder committed by one of Manchester's leading police constables. The only evidence proving his innocence is a CCTV video tape locked inside a bank vault. With the help of four inept ex-criminals and token love interest Emma (Lena Headey), Garden must break into the bank and steal the CCTV footage in order to clear his name. Written by Anon

Trivia
A CGI shot of a wasp flying up Steve Coogan's nose took 12 hours and 10,000 feet of 35mm film before the wasp flying in a small glass cabinet could be coaxed into the nostril of green wax head See more »Goofs
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): George mentions that 1962 was the year that the American pop band The Beach Boys formed. While their first album "Surfin' Safari" did come out in 1962, the band formed and released their first single in 1961. See more »Quotes
