hyped garbage
Seems they can't make enough films about King Arthur and the Hatton Garden Heist. This is inspired/based on the true story of an over-the-hill gang who drilled into the wall of London's most prestigious private vault. I have seen a couple of films on this heist, and while this one wasn't grossly bad, it wasn't as good at the others. Knowing what was going to happen didn't help. The characters were not as deep or colorful as is needed for a new film on the topic.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
The Hatton Cross Job is a fictional story based on facts. In Easter 2015, the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit Company was robbed by four old lags.Matthew Goode plays the unnamed young man who recruits the old timers with their various ailments who know how to steal the old way. Goode is bankrolled by some East Europeans but an ex copper is on to him.This is an efficient, low budget film. A couple of actors like Stephen Moyer drop in for a scene or two. It is not too far departed from the lovable ageing gangsters trope, reminiscing and joking about the good old days when the villains lived by a code. Then wondering where the next dose of painkillers have got to.
This film could have been so much better if more time and effort was put into it. It feels very rushed in every way from the performances to the sound work and camera work. I think if it had a better cast maybe it could have been better I really would have liked to see Michael Caine or even Jason Statham. The film also wasn't very well written and it could have spent longer developing the characters more I think. Overall it wasn't terrible it just could have benefited from a larger budget it seems. It's not that long either so try it out if you like heist movies.
This is the heist scenario. You know, the big idea, the round up of talented villains, the trials and tribulations of the heist, followed by the spend, spend, spend.The man who invented it didn't want it. The man who bought it didn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it? The answer to the riddle posed by Brian Reader (Larry Lamb) in the tense pub stand off with a group of youngsters I will leave to you.In this based on fact robbery story, a mystery shopper (Matthew Goode) recruits four ageing criminals to break into the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit Company premises over Easter 2015. They not only steal multi million pounds in cash and jewels but also a much sought after box implicating a certain ex-CID policeman.The heist is organised by an Eastern European crime family which obtains the required multi million pound jewel swag then melts into the background.The Mystery Shopper escapes, but the older criminals allow themselves to be caught.This is a slow retelling of the now famous robbery, with some anachronisms regarding the cars used in the film. Also, the shape of the hole changes, and never matches the real one as shown in the news footage of the day. There are obvious mistakes in the use of the break-in equipment.I now know why my wheelie bins were stolen a few months back. They make convenient carriers for tools and loot on such escapades.A pleasant tale told for the armchair criminologists. It lacks detail for the keen observer.
