Who´s in it?

Jason Statham, Saffron Burrows
What´s the plot?

Based on the true story of a genuine unsolved bank robbery that took place in London, 1971. The first-time thieves get far more than the cash and jewels they bargained for and soon find themselves mixed up with MI5, the mob and the Royal Scandal of the Century.
BBFC Consumer Advice
Contains very strong language, and strong sex and violence.

Excellent film. Great performances from all characters and a film without loads of the "Special Effects" seen in most Hollywood films nowadays. Glad to see we Brits can still make really enjoyable movies.

Great Entertainment

Took my wife and elder daugher to see this film and half expected it to be "smoking barrels" type of film which we all enjoy anyway, but it was even better. Great tension right to the end. Great acting by all but the minor characters. We all left with big smiles on our faces. Just shows what good film making can produce without huge budgets. Well done Roger Donaldson!.
