Who'll love it
Made for crime-drama fans and anyone who likes to be kept guessing. If you loved Dog Day Afternoon or The Usual Suspects, start here. Critics rate it higher than audiences do, so it rewards patience more than it chases thrills.
The mood

The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 2 hr 6 min.
What might put you off
Rated R: meant for adults.

After escaping a Michigan prison, a charming career criminal assumes a new identity in Canada and goes on to rob a record 59 banks and jewellery stores while being hunted by a rogue task force. Based on the true story of The Flying Bandit.
