Simon Crook Empire Magazine It may not be immune to the odd Brit thriller clich, but this is an assured, stylish heist thriller from the debut filmmaker. Rated: 3/5 Nov 15, 2013 Full Review Ben Sachs Chicago Reader This British heist picture is familiar but energetic genre filmmaking, more interesting in its particulars than in its overall conception. Aug 1, 2013 Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com The constant spinning of wheels drains the piece of its energy until a final act gets so convoluted that the whole thing falls apart. Rated: 2.0/5.0 Jul 31, 2013 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com A derivative amalgamation of heist genre classics, all the while bearing an excessively smug grin. Aug 22, 2019 Full Review Ray Pride Newcity We're decades past the Kitchen Sink school, this kitchen's sunk. Apr 8, 2014 Full Review Claire Webb Radio Times The end result is a slick, satisfying debut. Rated: 3/5 Nov 21, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Emin D This is a really good mini-series. Music and photography perfectly adds to the scenery and the plot of the series. The plot itself is written very good - you couldn’t know until last episode what is the epilogue. Definitely series to watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/14/24 Full Review Audience Member the equivalent of a "lad magazine" movie in movie form; funny bro lads and a luminous Kirby and typically good Spall Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A really good film with some great acting and a clever story, which got better and better as the film progressed. The four lads in the film worked really well together, whilst Timothy Spall had real presence as the detective. I found it difficult to work out some of the dialogue at times, which made it tricky to follow the complicated twists and turns at times, but in the great scheme of things it was a clear, enjoyable and funny story well told in this film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Well made crime-drama, but its major fault is there's no real characters to like within the film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review geoff a Great film. Really enjoyed it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A good plot executed well for the screen makes this quite a good watch. Good performances too.
