Der Überfall - Es geht um mehr als Geld

Of course this story is totally implausible, that's also because of this it is unexpected and interesting. It is definitely another INSIDE MAN rip-off, all those thrillers and features - films and series - involving bank robbers and hostage schemes: all more complex one than the other. Not all good but not all bad either. I expected far far worse. Not a masterpiece, but I preferred this than MONEY HEIST series crap, conceived for all audiences, teenagers, truck drivers, housewives, executives, everyone. I am not everyone.

Spanish cinema delivering great works, a police thriller film, but with just the right amount of spice, ironic humor, evil but clumsy criminals, a hostage with personal problems on the side, the hidden codes thing is super exaggerated (in the untimely translation of the film's title). The original would make much more sense, since it is explained at the beginning of the film (70 notes are so rare that no one has seen them like Osama), what an ending, very good, favorable plot twist...

Raquel is a desperate woman who needs 35,000 euros (or seventy-five hundred notes, known on the street as binladens). She is about to get what she needs through a bank loan when two thieves interrupt the transaction, putting her in an impossible situation. Is she the thief or the victim? All she knows is that she needs this money, no matter the price.

A contained thriller that stands out for its ability to sustain tension in a confined space, relying on a solid script and a cast led by two actresses whose remarkable performances elevate the film. The story skillfully develops its characters with just a few strokes, avoiding clichés, and delivers a narrative pace that rarely falters, though some plot twists might feel predictable at times. Its modest ambition works in its favor, granting it freshness and lightness, although this lack of deeper aspirations may leave viewers craving more substance. An engaging and effective piece, particularly appealing to those who enjoy stories set in claustrophobic settings.

I went in to watch this with absolutely no information, and I liked it.

most of it takes place inside, or just outside, the Bank. a woman is desperate to get an immediate loan, and not even a robbery will stop her.

it's not your average rehash of bank heist tropes. the robbers are damaged people who behave supremely idiotically. the police are "soft" compared to what one has come to expect from other similar movies. a wordplay is being used as a major plot device (it helps if you speak spanish, but it's not necessary). there's a minor twist halfway through that I honestly did not see coming.

this is not a movie that will change your life, but if you're tired of movies where you can guess the plot twists and the ending 20 minutes in, you'll enjoy it.

This movie is a unbelievable garbage. It's more like a parody on a bunch of absolutely dumb policemen. The story is implausible, the acting is bad and there's no good word that can be said about this movie. Avoid by any means if you don't want to feel like a fool after watching that drivel.
