Viewing Notes

This evening I watched the well-played The Bank Job which I’ve been wanting to see ever since the rave reviews started pouring in. Jason Statham needs more roles like this as it’s clear he can carry a well-crafted flick (unlike his standard Transporter/Deathrace/War leading characters; let’s forget about In the Name of the King, shall we?). Definitely an entertaining watch.
