Plots(1)
The movie follows four ageing East End criminals – led by 76 year-old Brian Reader – and one mystery man who pull off the largest heist in English legal history. With everyone from the Hungarian mob to Scotland Yard on their tail, these old-school – and just plain old – villains set about achieving the seemingly impossible, drilling into a steel-and-concrete secured safety deposit vault in London's well-to-do Hatton Garden jewellery quarter. But will they commit the crime of the century or pay with their lives? (Signature Entertainment)

This is a pretty unremarkable heist flick at first glance, but ultimately, for an independent-looking film, it's actually not bad at all and ends up being quite entangled with characters that aren't downright bad. Given that they are mostly old men, you will even end up cheering for them now and then. Or at least feel sorry for them.

These grandpas may be relatively unknown actors but getting used to their hogwash really took a lot of work, just like the rest of the movie. It doesn’t put you to sleep and you don’t exactly end up thinking it’s been a waste of time, so it’s not bad in that respect. I thought it was okay for an unknown movie.
