Movie Info & Cast

Synopsis

A crew of retired criminals reunite to pull one last job, but their London jewel heist quickly goes south. Michael Caine, Michael Gambon, Ray Winstone, Tom Courtenay and Jim Broadbent play the n’er-do-well pensioners who, with the help of a younger crook played by Charlie Cox, target the cache of gold and jewels stored in Hatton Garden safe deposit boxes.

Don’t let the crew’s gray hair fool you — these are hardened pros, not easygoing elderly. When push comes to shove, can they set aside long habits of greed and violence in order to get the job done? Inspired by the burglary of the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit company that took place in London in 2015.

The result invites confusion and ultimately indifference on the viewer’s part. When one character makes a joking reference to Alec Guinness’ brilliant Ealing comedy “The Lavender Hill Mob” the comparison does this film no favors.

The primary pleasure of James Marsh’s understated heist film is the opportunity to watch these icons go from mild-mannered pensioners to snarling, backstabbing hoods. That’s one of its shortcomings, too: We want more, and the picture never quite gives it to us.

An old-school film about an old-school crime that brings together an impressive array of British legends. Solid, but sadly the results don’t exactly blow the bloody doors off.
