Viewing Notes

Riveting heist movie adapted from a real crime that happened in 2004. Most impressive aspect of this movie is how well-crafted, funny and yet so suspenseful it is based on this docudrama concept (uses documentary elements mixed with a standard drama narrative). Also features one of my all-time favorite songs that I’ve previously not heard used in a movie. Bonus for that! Great film to watch with a crowd.
