Storyline

Three fraternal bank robbers, languishing in jail, discover a profitable (if not dodgy) way to spend their time. Crime can most certainly pay, if you "know wot I mean?" However when sex and greed rear-up between the good crims and the bad cops, the consequences are both bizarre and fatal.

Critics consensus

“This caper flick lacks the originality necessary to elevate it above other films of its genre.”

It is at most a middling effort.

The movie-jaded will dismiss The Hard Word as just another slick heist flick with a band of burglar buddies. Too bad for their cynical souls. They'll be missing a grand (theft) time.

Just when you think you've got it all figured out, there's another disorienting jolt.
