A crew of retired crooks pulls off a major heist in London's jewelry district.
A true crime film about a crew of retired crooks who pull off a major heist in London’s jewelry district. What starts off as their last criminal hurrah quickly turns into a brutal nightmare due to greed. Based on infamous true events.
“I don’t have a favorite for this movie simply because the way everybody bounced and so immersed in their character. To me one of the key things about this movie is that within their world, the hardships of being a thief, when they are older you still get those characteristics so you get those side-effects.”
– Raven ‘Geek Sensei’ Delgado
