This could have been so much better

Summary: A notorious gang of robbers known as "The Cowboys" rob a bank that is already been robbed by someone else.

Review: Boy, what a mess! Confusing and erratic back flashes, the same scene in the bank shown over and over from different angles and perspectives and a whole lot of unnecessary or unfinished plot strings. Starring John Simm and Philip Glenister, the great Duo from "Life on Mars" this could have been such a great, funny and entertaining movie. I think this movie is meant to be funny as well, but you don't get much of that. Interesting, how 74 minutes can take that long to pass. Boring.

Highlight: The Security Guard

Notable Actors: John Simm (Doctor Who), Philip Glenister (Life on Mars)

I agree since Hollywood is into remakes they should do this and do it right. Great premise about multiple robberies, just needs a great comedic team behind it. I did love the Sheena Easton bit near the end lol.

John Simm is a fantastic actor and loyal friend. He only appeared in this as a favor to Glenister and the director. During the filming he was appearing in a play and his second child had just been born.

Mediocre film, but Simm's interrogation scene was a/the highlight.
