Review:
This is a fun little film about a group of robbers who take on a small bank only to obtain one heck of a big score...only the radio announces that they only made out with a few thousand dollars! They know something is wrong, but Charley Varrick (Walter Matthau) figures out that it must be mob money! Then the cunning robbers must figure out how to survive and to stay hidden from the mob featuring more elaborate schemes and tricks along the way. Matters are not made simple by the fact that his main associate is frighteningly reckless. It's very exciting, it's filled with action and fun and there is never a dull moment. Certainly one of the better films like this and well worth a viewing, something for everyone in this I think.
Availability: On DVD
