    The Bank Job

    ★★★½

    This is a fun movie! I feel like I need to say that upfront because a box cover with Statham walking towards the title might be a red flag, but this one is honestly pretty good. It's based on a real robbery, which most viewers have not experienced, and is set back in the 1970s, which most viewers have not experienced, so is a novel fun time!

Oh also the guy who played Forrest Gump in Weird Al's "Gump" music video is in this.
