Better spend money on Inside Man
25 February 2009
Warning: Spoilers
The plot is just a paraphrased copy of Inside Man, and a poor one at that. Nothing original whatsoever, which makes this movie a really dull one. The second they go in the back and start checking that floor you can predict how the story is going to develop. You already know there must be someone from bank staff helping these robbers. And sure enough he appears. Characters are not believable at all. Serious people planning a serious robbery do not take village idiots with them on the job. They also are smart enough to finish up fast without playing testosterone games.

What killed me is the stupid ending. The newsman says that robbers were caught landing in Germany. In 2 hours? No one knew who these people were, faces were covered, they escaped and covered their tracks. Then all of a sudden they get caught in Germany? Apparently, the English police used its psychic powers and figured everything out in minutes and had time to warn most of Europe by sending out identifiable information...Sure. Why then did they look so puzzled walking out of the bank? And how exactly did they put in jail 6 people arrested in another country without any evidence and with a good alibi. To sum up, this film is inconsistent, unoriginal, poorly written piece of cinematic garbage. If you want to see a good movie, try the original version of this plot--the Inside Man.
