Simply A Masterpiece

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Every IMDb user who's read all my comments already know that I am the greatest caper movie lover in history.And this feature is really a little gem. I saw it many years ago, on french TV, when I was a kid.An effective yarn about a bunch of thieves committing the perfect crime, stealing a $10 millions bullion from an aircraft. It reminds me a little : "The Italian Job", shot several years earlier. The Modus Operandi is almost the same. Almost, for the last part of the operation: with the bus.I guess this TV movie was the pilot for a series. I guess but I am not really sure. It's not indicated in Maltin's dictionary. When I watched the police officers' bunch, with not really a lead one as we usually see in theâtres movies, it "smells" later TV episodes...I highly recommend it. For those who love heist movies, of course...
