About this movie

From Bart Layton (The Imposter) and starring Evan Peters (The X-Men Series), Barry Keoghan (Dunkirk & The Killing of the Sacred Deer), and Ann Dowd (The Handmaid's Tale) comes the extraordinary and thrilling true story of four friends living an ordinary existence who brazenly attempt to execute one of the most audacious art heists in US history. But not everything is as it seems, and as the daring theft unfolds through each of their perspectives, they start to question whether their attempts to inject excitement and purpose into their lives is simply a misguided attempt at achieving the American Dream.

Ratings and reviews

A great story about how when young kids are growing up they can find themselves crossing a line and it will have irreversible effects on peoples lives. A choice once made can never be taken back to make the choice over. When you break the law it can never be unbroken and neither can the lives of those it hurts.
