Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk review: A cheerful, energetic, and completely entertaining movie, The Bank Job follows some small-time hoods who think they've lucked into a big-time opportunity when they learn a bank's security system will be temporarily suspended--little suspecting that they're being manipulated by government agents for their own ends. The result is that the movie doubles its pleasures: While the robbery itself has the usual suspense of a heist film, when the robbery is over the hoods find themselves being hunted by the police, the government, and brutal criminal kingpins who were storing dangerous information in a safety deposit box. The Bank Job won't win any awards, but it's enormously fun. Director Roger Donaldson (No Way Out, Species) propels the action along with vigour, zippy editing (with perfect clarity among multiple story-lines) and various colourful characters. Jason Statham (Snatch, The Transporter), as the leader of the bank robbers, successfully steps away from his usual bone-crunching roles to a more human presence. The rest of the cast--including Saffron Burrows (Deep Blue Sea), Keeley Hawes (Tipping the Velvet), David Suchet (Poirot), and many faces familiar from British film and television--give their characters the right degree of personality and flavour without getting fussy or detracting from the headlong rush of the story. A little sex, a lot of action, a sly sense of humour, and a twisty plot. If more movies had these basic pleasures, the world would be a happier place. --Bret Fetzer Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Saffron BurrowsThe Bank Job is so so as entertainment, but the most fun/pain can be had by watching the cringeworthy Saffron Burrows inexplicably given another film role to demonstrate how she is probably the worst British actress of all time. Rating:  - A likeable and gritty British gangster movieThis has all the essential ingredients a good old school British gangster movie needs: an outrageous heist, a 1970s setting, horrible villains, likeable villains - and Jason Statham. On the surface this film appears like a straightforward bank robbery film. A group of small time crooks get some inside information on a bank and after much deliberation decide, in Statham's words, "to step up to the first division" and carry out their first bank robbery. Little do they know that the bank they are robbing holds safety deposit boxes containing extremely sensitive photos and information on all sorts of influential figures in the British establishment. So not only are they embarking on the biggest ever robbery in terms of money stolen, ... Read More: Rating: - Loved itLoved this movie - reminiscent of the old British bank robbery films - Jason was great not overacting and trying to be the movie equivalent of Phil Mitchell. Great cast, and as a Brit living abroad the location scenes were great, good story that wasn't just about robbing a bank. Rating: - How Times Are ChangingThe Bank Job is one interesting film to say the least - Jason Statham actually doesn't have a very violent role like he's enjoyed in other films like The Transporter, and he's got a lot to think about, and gets a lot more dialogue, and more emotion in him. You get to see a very shady side of the law, the governmental system and crooks in general, with the problems of fundamentalists too. A very interesting look at what happened during one of the biggest heists this country has seen, claiming that the haul was actually bigger than the train robbery that Buster had committed. Some of the best moments include when they send that guy on the roof and he knocks off his radio; oh and when Terry falls down that hole. I really ...
