Jewels! submitted by ssands on June 23, 2015, 3:47pm For some reason, I expect a heist film to be 100% silliness. This had the funny moments and the time-critical everyone-must-work-as-a-well-oiled-machine scenes that I expected. But it was more moralizing than perhaps a more modern Hollywood movie. That actually dampened my enjoyment a bit. I think it depends on how thoughtful you want to be about a crime flick.
