Em Abril de 2015, uma quadrilha assaltou os cofres de Hatton Garden, uma empresa de segurança que fornecia vários joalheiros de Londres. Nesse golpe, foram roubados cerca de 200 milhões de libras em dinheiro, diamantes e pedras preciosas. Dada a dimensão do assalto, as autoridades - e a comunicação social, que acompanhou o caso nos dias que se seguiram, julgaram que se tratava de um grupo de criminosos altamente sofisticado. Para surpresa de todos, descobriu-se mais tarde que os verdadeiros autores, apesar dos antecedentes criminais, eram maioritariamente idosos. (RTP)

An average heist movie that fails to balance humor with suspense and occasionally forces the legendary cast to do things on the verge of awkwardness. As a heist movie, King of Thieves isn't very imaginative or suspenseful, and as a comedy, not very funny. Aside from a few directorial ideas and the natural charisma of the acting legends, it's hard to find anything that would elevate the film above average.

Michael Caine is stealing again. The problem this time, though, is that although both he and his character have the right to be tired, the film didn't have to be so tired. I liked the acting line-up, a few scenes were really good, but the recent Going in Style was much better - it's not that it was comedy, it's that it had zest.
