Leave your thoughts about The Hatton Garden Job.
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterAn efficient, workmanlike recreation of the planning and execution of the big, daring crime. |
| Radio TimesTerry StauntonMore time poring over the blueprints could have made this a richer experience, instead of merely serviceable. |
| Daily Mail (UK)Brian VinerIt's shamelessly derivative, unapologetically old-fashioned, defiantly corny, but it still tells a remarkable true story with a certain swagger and naive charm. |
| El Pais (Spain)Javier OcañaNeither funny nor comical nor dramatic nor metaphorical. It's little; it's almost nothing. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| The Mail on Sunday (UK)Matthew BondThe whole thing feels underpowered, over-elaborate and lacking in tension. Sexy Beast it ain't. |
| Metro (UK)Nick Reilly... instead of telling the fascinating story that eventually emerged at trial, director Ronnie Thompson instead opts to weave a third-rate yarn that is ridden with cheap clichés and even weaker performances. |
| HeyUGuysJon LyusAll the time there's no sense of jeopardy or drama, so you don't really care what happens either way. Stir in the polystyrene characters, as hollow as they are disposable, and it only serves to exacerbate the feeling that you're watching a bad film. |
| Independent (UK)Geoffrey MacnabThere is a hint of old Ealing comedies in Ronnie Thompson's likeable if very undercharged telling of the story of the 2015 Hatton Garden jewellery/safety deposit box heist. |
| Empire MagazineLiz BeardsworthUniformly likeable leads can't save plotlines heading nowhere, leaving it a film with its fun moments but more frustrating ones, and too little detail to be anything other than forgettable. |
| Observer (UK)Wendy IdeFrom the wocka-wocka retro-funk score to the glitchy Guy Ritchie-lite jump cuts, split screens and wipe edits, to the smattering of rhyming slang, this film doesn't have an original idea in its entire running time. |
