"The Bank Job" gets a recommendation from LA Times reviewer Kevin Crust:Leave ti to a trio of crafy veterans to pull a fast one with this lively heist drama set in early 1970s London and inspired by an incredibly strange true story.
Synopsis of "The Bank Job" by The Production at IMDB
In September 1971, thieves tunneled into the vault of a bank in London's Baker Street and looted safe deposit boxes of cash and jewelry worth over three million pounds. None of it was recovered. Nobody was ever arrested. The robbery made headlines for a few days and then disappeared - the result of a 'D' Notice, gagging the press. This film reveals what was hidden for the first time. The story involves murder, corruption and a sex scandal with links to the Royal Family - a story in which the thieves were the most innocent people involved.
