It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Hugely funny,I hardly stopped laughing throughout.Wonderful comic performance from Sean Williamson as the copper in charge at a bank siege who couldn't find his own backside with a telescope and a sniffer dog. Brilliantly satirises stereotypical Cockerney Geezers ..Luvv'ly Jubbly,Leave It Aht....Yer'avin a tin barrfff incha...etc etc...I absolutely howled at their sharp - witted London Patois...and then I realised it was meant to be serious!No,honestly,the makers of "Daylight Robbery" intended it to be edgy,urban and gritty.So you could believe,if you were very,very silly,that this is what it's really like to rob a bank. First you put on stocking masks that actually show your every feature very clearly,then you employ complete morons who can't stop talking all the time.Then you fix an alibi that only holds water if nobody has ever seen "The Italian Job". And a method of retrieving the money that went out with "The Great Escape"which,incidentally,is all you'd be dreaming of for the next thirty years or so if you carried on like that. So,hardly "Rififi" then,and threatening to kill an SO.19 officer would merely have caused you to have been blown the f*** away whilst trying to escape. Get real,guys. Frankly I have yet to see a British caper movie that is remotely convincing because the bad guys never seem bad enough or the cops ruthless enough. We always want to give our villains dear old mums or heavily pregnant wives/girlfriends as if that abates their villainy somehow. And our coppers,who,strangely like the popular belief,never seem to have mums at all,dear and old or otherwise.And their wives,if seen,are thin lipped beehived brow - beaten creatures for ever preparing their husbands dinner then throwing it in the bin because he's going to be late home again. Till that day when British cinema comes up with something like the real McCoy(and I shan't hold my breath) it inflicts the likes of "Daylight Robbery" on us with depressing regularity. Unless one of your loved ones is in it I should give it a miss.

Did I miss something, this was an old formula, done badly.What more can I say - save your money; the postives must not have seen the slow paced predictable, dumb movie.No interest suspense, acting, music - I reckon this was ameuteur dramatics production that has gone into TV!I was bored, but kept watching as so many people cant be wrong - oh yes they can! Poor everying, from music to terrible acting. At least they used a (former) real NatWest Bank! No saving graces, don't waste your time and money!So save up and wait, watch Taken (a proper movie), not this tripe.

A solid British heist film which tries to capture the tension of Dog Day Afternnon. Jeff Bell is good in the film as are the rest of the male cast. Good set-pieces - the tunnels sequences work very well. The bank job feels real enough. The film contains nice touches which take the audience in unexpected directions. It's good to see Barry from Eastenders doing something other than Extras. Not that many female characters, although the main woman is quite a babe.Good tight piece all around. The kind of film that doesn't normally get made in UK. Paris Leonti is clearly a director to keep an eye on.

A really great gritty movie with some great performances particularly from Vas Blackwood and Shaun Williamson.Top action-filled plot which has you clinging onto your seat at times! Mostly centred around the City of London so great if you know this area well. The script is tight yet immediately manages to make you familiar with each of the key characters. There's a great combination of action and comedy from the start with some pretty audacious stunts to boot.All in all a great low budget movie which manages to make you laugh and certainly kept me entertained throughout. I could definitely watch this again!
