6. OUT OF SIGHT – The energized film from Steven Soderbergh finds George Clooney as a clever thief. After calmly misleading a poor teller that some stranger is actually his partner with a hidden gun, he easily walks out of the bank with a large sum of money. Unfortunately, his sad little car won’t start, once again putting Jack behind bars.
5. SEEMS LIKE OLD TIMES – Chevy Chase is forced into a bank robbery when he delivers the stressful situation the only way Chevy Chase knows how – awkward comedy and physical humor. After passing a note to the teller she screams and asks what she should do. Chase casually replies, “I don’t know, lets take a look. Stick up. Put all your money in a bag. One more sound and your dead.”
4. 30 MINUTES OR LESS – Jesse Eisenberg (who also stars in NOW YOU SEE ME) and Aziz Ansari are just a couple of slackers who are forced to perform a bank robbery. The dialogue between the two and their hostages keep the laughs continually coming. Particularly the disappointment from Aziz after the teller gives him a dye pack, he truly believed she was their friend.
