About this movie

Based on the story "Thieves," the 2005 Hammett Prize for Excellence in Crime Writing. As he plans his next job, a longtime thief tries to balance his feelings for a bank manager connected to one of his earlier heists, as well as the FBI agent looking to bring him and his crew down.

Ratings and reviews

Through the writing, we do get a sense of why certain characters choose to behave in certain ways. I'm glad the ending is not cute. The acting is adequate. The plot is intelligent and yet believable. Gritty. But not passionate.

This movie by far is my favorite armed robbery style next too heat. I wasn't too sure at first because of Ben Affleck but his performance in this movie blew me away. 5 stars all day long..

Ben Aflect has been better
