Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
A true crime movie 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.
"Directed by James Marsh ('The Theory of Everything'), this movie is based on the true story of what has been called the heist of the century in the UK (so far): the high-security vault robbery in London's Hatton Garden district in 2015. With several creative licenses and plenty of humor involved, 'King of Thieves' tells the story with a cast of veteran British acting legends, led by the great Michael Caine, and also including Michael Gambon ('Harry Potter'), Jim Broadbent ('Paddington'), Tom Courtenay ('Doctor Zhivago') and the less veteran Charlie Cox ('Daredevil'). It should please fans of the similar and enjoyable 'Going in Style'."
