The Bank Job is based on the famous walkie-talkie bank job in 1971. Michael X, an emerging black activist and budding crime lord, owns sexually explicit photographs of Princess Margaret, desperate to recover them, the government uses troubled model Martine Love (Saffron Burrows) to recruit a team of crooks to rob the bank they are kept in, grabbing the safety deposit box with the photographs along the way.
With the promise of £millions, Martine enlists old flame Terry Leather (Jason Statham), but in their loot is a ledger detailing payoffs made to crooked cops by Porn King Lew Vogel (David Suchet). With auithoroties both wanting to catch the gang, and let the gang not get caught, and the criminal underworld wanting to catch up with them too, its a movie of cross and double-cross!
The Bank Job is another great British movie, I really enjoyed it and will reccomend it to all, to quote the movie - Some names have been changed to protect the guilty!
I collect DVDs, we have over 3,000 titles in the house now! I buy most from Car Boot Sales,Poundshops, markets, sales, and greatly reduced from the internet, but I only buy what I want to watch! I do a short report when I watch them, I got rid of almost 800 titles at Christmas 2010 (low score, duplicates, ones I'd never watch etc.) I continue to wade through them, and appear to be buying slightly less, but still watching like mad :)
