King Of Thieves

★★★ OUT now / CERT 15 / 108 mins director James Marsh cast Michael Caine, Michael Gambon, Ray Winstone, Jim Broadbent, Charlie Cox, Paul Whitehouse

When it COMES to the hatton Garden heist, the numbers are staggering. There’s the value of the loot — a cool £14 million — but even more impressive were the ages of the perps, the gang all in their sixties and seventies. it’s no surprise the tale of their crime has already become a mini-series and three separate films. This latest one, boasting an all-star line-up of elderly British legends, is the highest-profile yet, but it still struggles to turn the source material into a truly gripping yarn. There’s no shortage of chemistry between the cast, but it largely coasts by on that charisma, nodding at the stars’ iconic screen moments of yesteryear rather than providing them with new ones.
