The movie starts with a group of excavation crews discovering a sunken Spanish treasure - only to be caught by the Spanish patrol and denied of their discovery. Not to be taken over so easily, Walter, the head of the crew determined to get back their discovery by whatever means necessary. 

The only problem is that their treasure is being housed in the Bank of Spain's safe - a building with no blueprint and a very tight and ancient security system that defies the current technology. The security system involves an underground river - so that's huge!

This is where Thom comes in. Thom is a college genius who has companies waiting for him to join them as soon as he graduates. But none of the company offers entices him. 

When Walter invites him to use his brain to crack the safe of the Bank of Spain, Thom immediately agrees. 

After much consideration, the crew agrees that the best time to break into the mysterious safe is during the 2010 World Cup Final between Spain and Netherland. They have 105 minutes to break into the safe, get their treasure and run scotfree during the live telecast of the match in front of the Bank of Spain building. 

Will they get the treasure in time or will the mysterious safe out best them?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.0/ 5.0 The twist at the end of the movie is the only thing that differentiates The Vault from The Italian Job, The Ocean series and the other heist movies. 

I would say that The Vault was inspired by all these movies and decided to combine the scenes together, only in a different country with different hurdles. 

Cast: 4.4/ 5.0 The actors did their parts beautifully. 

Will I watch it again: I would as I love heist movies. 

The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.

  5. So it is a combination of all the other famous heist movies huh! Then I should watch this. :) Trying to break into an "ancient" vault without any blueprint will indeed be very challenging.
