About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a classic, twisty crime caper with a bold diamond-heist premise and a persistent police pursuit; Not for you if you need nonstop action or modern sensibilities—try Rififi or Bob le Flambeur.

Pros: audacious heist setup; tense cat-and-mouse; memorable music | Cons: uneven pacing; dated attitudes; distracting dubbing
