I went and put all kinds of Statham movies in my queue. A well done effort! Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read More"The Bank Job" offers a suspenseful, artistic, and surprisingly accurate rendition of the 1971 Baker Street Robbery with Jason Statham in one of his best leading roles since his earlier work with Guy Ritchie. With Roger Donaldson's ("No Way Out") direction and interpretation of the script and a charming cast that presents somewhat of a throwback to more classic gang films, "The Bank Job" has plenty of mystery and conspiracy to keep the viewer entertained throughout and even sparks interest in the history behind the depicted events. The characters that are more interesting than the action around them and the fascinating plot make this a picture well worth watching. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Convoluted story that was sometimes difficult to follow. Unpleasant characters; made it hard to really care what happened in this movie. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read MoreI think that this was a true story makes this movie very interesting, but it took a while for all the pieces to come together. Not that that is a bad thing, but there was nothing to keep you interested until the end. It was very slow until about 2/3's the way through - we almost turned it off a couple of times. Glad we didn't because the end was very good, just took a while to get there. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Good plot and presentation. A few unexpected twists and turns but overall rather predictable. Still, enjoyed getting lured into the story and watching Jason Statham. The British characters are a great change of pace. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

We turned this movie off. If we wanted to rent a cheesy porn movie, we'd rent it. This movie had threesomes, porn, strippers, you name it. We wanted an action movie, not a porn. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
