The Vault offers plenty of slick, heisty fun, but is hampered a bit by some unfortunate, charisma-sucking casting choices.

In the hands of ... Balagueró, a formulaic film like The Vault may not serve up profound themes or even well-developed, multi-dimensional characters, but what it does offer may just be worth the investment in time, labour, and streaming fees.

It aims to do for future heist films what Ocean's Eleven has done for the genre. But they did it first and did it better.
| Original Score: C+ | Apr 26, 2021
Nice editing mixes the hysteria of World Cup finals with sweaty vault raiding in this safe and sane procedural.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Apr 6, 2021
The scene, the setting and the characters are all familiar, but "The Vault" moves nimbly and efficiently through the motions. Consider this bank job a score.

Requiring substantial forgiveness of its numerous logical gaps, this slick yet derivative British heist thriller never manages to raise the emotional stakes.

Liam Cunningham and Freddie Highmore lead the sparkling cast of thieves just crazy enough to try to claim treasure buried deep under the Bank of Spain.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 27, 2021
Crackerjack direction and the performances are really fun.
| Mar 26, 2021
It's off-the-charts ridiculous and contrived, but if you can forgive that while enjoying the performances and the craft of the filmmaking, you'll have a good time.

The Vault is a film that has a pretty neat idea at its center, but never quite figures out how to make it into an exciting movie.
| Mar 26, 2021
This spirited, fleet-footed heist tale feels like a lower-rent Mission: Impossible or Ocean's movie, but its intriguing puzzle and likable characters make it a pleasant distraction.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 26, 2021
If you like heist movies, you should take a look at this British-Spanish coproduction with Freddie Highmore, Sam Riley and Famke Jenssen.
| Original Score: B | Mar 26, 2021
Director Jaume Balagueró (Rec) mounts a handsome, intense thriller that falls flat only when it starts to take itself too seriously.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 26, 2021
