Rating: 2/5 --
One capably staged chase sequence apart, it's not one to set the pulse racing.

Rating: 2/5 --
A remake of a Dutch movie that itself wasn't much of a success.

The stakes might be high, but never once do they produce even a frisson of delight, horror or tension.

Rating: 2/5 --
It's a half-hearted crime picture which is ultimately about as successful as the clueless criminals that inspired it.

How could such a gripping true story make such a dull film? And what was Anthony Hopkins thinking when he agreed to star?

Rating: 2/5 --
It fails in the basic requirements of a heist movie: there's no planning, no camaraderie, no competency and worst of all, no thrills.

It's obviously possible to make compelling movies about true crime committed by unsympathetic people, but this sure isn't one of them.
