PROGRAM DESCRIPTION One of the most critically-acclaimed films of year arrives on DVD and Blu-Ray Disc this July when Lionsgate releases The Bank Job in three different versions. Directed by Roger Donaldson (Thirteen Days) and from the award-winning writing team of Dick Clement & Ian La Frenais (Across the Universe), The Bank Job is based on the true story of a heist gone wrong...in all the right ways. A hit at the box office, the film made a huge impact among critics. Rolling Stone declares it “full of surprises…crackling suspense…a real heist that literally did shake the Empire,” Access Hollywood proclaims it “smart, gritty, completely engrossing and totally entertaining…the best movie of the year so far,” and Life & Style Weekly raves that “this thriller is worth the investment…it’s an exciting and unpredictable ride.” The Bank Job: 2-Disc Special Edition DVD and Blu-Ray are loaded with thrilling bonus features including featurettes and extended scenes plus both come with a standard- definition digital copy of the feature film. The single-disc DVD will include a Widescreen and Full Screen version of the film. All three heart-pounding releases will be available on July 15, 2008.
Terry (Jason Statham), a car dealer with a dodgy past and new family, has always avoided major-league scams. However, when Martine (Saffron Burrows), a beautiful model from his old neighborhood, offers him a lead on a foolproof bank hit on London’s Baker Street, Terry recognizes it as the opportunity of a lifetime. Martine targets a room full of safe deposit boxes worth millions in cash and jewelry. What Terry and his crew don’t realize is that the boxes also contain a treasure trove of dirty secrets – secrets that will thrust them into a deadly web of corruption and illicit scandal that spans London’s criminal underworld, the highest echelons of the British government and the Royal family itself.
The Bank Job is presented by Lionsgate, in association with Relativity Media and produced by Charles Roven and Steven Chasman.
