... a terrific piece of heist filmmaking made with a rough-and-tumble attitude and old-school professionalism.

A tight, classic-feeling film about losers banding together for one big score, then scrambling furiously as they realize they're in over their heads. It's fast, nifty, sharp and sweet.

Thanks to the twin pens of screenwriters Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, what a jam-packed and misanthropic fiction this is.
March 07, 2008
It's something new for heist pictures: a movie that can't even rip off its predecessor with any panache.

The Bank Job happily stole my attention

The Bank Job is an often suspenseful and sleek crime movie which shows how a group of working class slumps exposed the scandalous nature of the rich, as both spooks and crims bay for their blood.

The Bank Job delivers much more than it's title claims.

The Bank Job is not just another slick caper film. It's robust, messy, cluttered, and a cut well above the average crime job.
March 07, 2008
The Bank Job is nothing more than an efficient time-killer with the added bonus of being based on a real misadventure. But, unlike its benighted cast of characters, it gets the job done without a hitch.

With its cockneys and coppers and the caper that comes a cropper, the movie is fully engaging on several levels.
