    Easy watching lovely OAP Yarn

    On a wet August BH weekend I found this by chance...it put a smile on my face.

    A gold star film.

    A mature couple take a stand against the banks after a pensions collapse.

    I absolutely loved every single second of this movie, it's funny, moving, very different, and features some of Britain's finest mature actors. Funny, plenty of unexpected moments, and lots of great lines. As always with this type of film, there are plenty of moving scenes.

    It's always great to see a mature cast in a film, everyone here a quality actor, what a cast list.

    Some wonderful visuals, they picked some terrific locations to film at.

    I can't make my mind up who steals this, Bernard Hillnot Brad Moore, Hill had me absolutely captivated, in acting terms he really stands out, such a wonderful actor, Moore on the other hand is hilarious, and drop dead gorgeous.

    Loved it, 9/10.

    A Cracking Little Film.

    I'd never heard of or knew about this film. I came across it on Netflix as I was looking for British films to watch.

    If you like gentle British comedies/dramas similar to the Margery and Gladys film with June Brown and Penelope Keith, you'll love this. I'm not going to pull the film to pieces on improbabilities like some critics do, just watch it for the fun it is. There are many older British stalwarts of film and television in this and it's great to see them together here. I loved this film, though it will probably appeal to an older audience more than a younger one.

    gentle entertainment

    This was a film of gentle entertainment for people who like a cheery story and a pleasant viewing experience with a few laughs along the way.

    If you like gritty crime drams, horror movies or deep and meaningful drama this will not be the film for you. If you would enjoy seeing the best of our stalwart British Actors still adding value in their latter years with a gentle story with an uplifting ending you might fare better.

    A great soundtrack for baby- boomers. Look out for classic performances from the likes of Phil Davies who never fails to please.

    Superb entertainment with social commentary

    Just loved this movie. So entertaining with .great humour and superb experienced cast. The social commentary is perhaps less percepible with US audience but it is great. Very well written, directed, filmed and edited. Shame Tom Jones did not appear in person..

    • Trivia
      The Sodbury bank where the final robbery takes place (named after villages north of Bristol called Chipping Sodbury and Old Sodbury) is the old Bank of England and Norwich Union building that has been disused since the 1980s on the corner of High Street and Bridge Street (Castle Park) in central Bristol. All of the exteriors and interiors (including the original vaults) are used in the film with minimal re-dressing.
    • Goofs
      During the slow-motion shot of the robbers in the final bank robbery scene a blue rubber glove covering a smoke alarm can be seen on the ceiling.
