The Hatton Garden Job

But this movie just didn't deliver the goods, the goods were in the hands of the thieves and stayed there.

I love cockney acting , I love the realism of the pub scenes and the back kitchens of the homes. All of this is set up in the opening couple of minutes and you're settling into your chair in anticipation of a great movie telling a great story.

It had some funny moments I must say, but there wasn't much in the way of character development and I was left with the feeling that the whole crew lost interest half way through.

The sub plots could have been developed a bit more, but again the Director didn't seem to care about explaining them to the audience and to be honest I didn't quite understand what they were about ( although I did walk away for five minutes to make myself a sandwich). My understanding wasn't any clearer by the end of the movie which meant I had to search through the internet to clarify what went on. That's not a good way to tell a story on the screen.

A successful caper like cleaning out a safety deposit box vault should translate into a thrilling movie but although these guys pulled the job off, the translators weren't able to pull it off with the final product.

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.

An insult to real Bank robbing Criminals. This was a chest beating British Actors failure. Not much of what actually happened during the robbery happened in this Film. I was looking forward to seeing this for a while...I'll never get this time back. It lacked so much to even come close to the real event. Lots of big mistakes made in almost every scene. I know these Actors couldn't care less about my opinion but the Writers and Producers should . I didn't enter any 'spoilers' because it is beneath me to ruin a Film that ruined itself. A great Film story ruined by among many other things....fictional 'Hungarian' Mobster'ess who never existed. Spare me next time.Very disappointed.

This film tells the story of a group of older criminals and a young man, who team up to rob a safety deposit box company in London. It turns out that they have successfully pulled off the biggest heist in the history of Britain.

"The Hatton Garden Job" could have been a thrilling heist film, but I think it is pretty flat. Most of the film shows them in an enclosed space drilling holes with Hilti equipment. It is not that interesting, to be honest. Even though there are several occasions where they are close to getting caught, or something big happens, none of these instances offer any thrill or highs. The film comes across as too descriptive and plain to be exciting.

There have amazingly been three films about the true story of the heist on the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit facility in 2015.

Until now I have not seen any of them. For me the trailers for such movies look so cliqued. Boring for want of another word.

This film does not disappoint in that respect. It plays like a TV drama or extended episode of a British TV soap opera called Eastenders. Complete with West Ham United scenes and flags.

It even stars a couple of ex Eastenders 'actors' in Larry Lamb and Phil Daniels.

The film is not terrible. It is just so unoriginal. Done so many times before. It's just a cheap heist rehash.

I began to nod off about three quarters into the film.

The main USP of this story is that the lags that took place are old timers who have health problems that involve over active prostate, diabetes and emphysema.

Should I even bother with the other two films? King of Thieves starring Michael Caine being the latest?
