Coming Soon: The Bank Job

Caper and heist movies are a favourite of mine.  Stylish men, clever crimes and beautiful women.  Caper movies are difficult to make, the logistics of making them are tricky, getting the tone and the pace right is even trickier.  But they are irresistible, promising excitement, danger and adventure.

With that in mind I am keenly awaiting a new British caper movie The Bank Job.  With a great cast including action movie star Jason Statham and David Suchet and directed by Roger Donaldson, The Bank Job looks like a winner.  If we can talk pedigrees for a moment Jason Statham already has a track record in caper movies, having played “Handsome Rob” in F Gary Gray’s classy remake of the Italian Job.  Roger Donaldson also directed the superb The World’s Fastest Indian and has a great eye for character and a reputation for getting great performances from his actors.
