THE BANK JOB is a caper movie, telling the story of the 1971 robbery of three million pounds from Lloyds bank in Baker Street, London. Another thumbs up from the group – everyone enjoyed it, some even expressing surprise that it was much better than expected. The cheeky British spirit was there in abundance, and members enjoyed seeing some classic Pommy actors in very different roles (e.g. David “Poirot” Suchet as a criminal boss).
Group rating: four stars (out of five)
