Inside Man

Plot:

From a cell, a man tells us he has planned the perfect bank robbery; he invites us to watch. An efficient gang enters a Manhattan bank, locks the doors, and takes hostages. They work deliberately, without haste. A snarky detective facing corruption charges is assigned to negotiate. The bank's president has something to protect in a safe deposit box, so he brings in a high-powered fixer. With an army of police surrounding the bank, the thief, the cop, and the plutocrat's fixer enter high-stakes negotiations. Why are the robbers asking for a plane - they know they won't get one. Why aren't they in more of a hurry? If the job's perfect, why is the thieves' leader in a cell?

Review:

One of the best heist movies i've seen in a long time. Great cast with Denzel Washington, Willem Dafoe, Jodie Foster and the coolest dude in the world, Clive Owen. The story is fast and entertaining, with lots of funny little quips along the way. I'd recommend you all to check it out.

Rating: 4.79/5
