The Vault isn’t airtight, but it works as a slick piece of escapist entertainment.
The Vault has all the external factors that heist movies require. Yet without quite being dull, somehow it misses the danger, esprit and camaraderie we need for such escapades to achieve liftoff.

Una premisa típica aunque curiosa, bien llevada a cabo, con un reparto variopinto, por consiguiente unas actuaciones sublimes.
La narrativa me mola, cuentan mucho el cómo hacerlo que la propia acción en sí, me gustó mucho.
Toques y referencias, sobre todo en el "prólogo" muy chulas.
· Cosas buenas: Es muy satisfactoria de ver, el reparto mola un montón, la trama es intensa y te mantiene pegado a la silla, y el ritmo no decae en toda la película.
· Cosas malas: Es similar a otras películas de atracos, no inventa nada, el guion puede que no sea el mejor del mundo.
· Conclusión: Una peli muy divertida de ver, que la vas a disfrutar un montón y que no te arrepentirás de haberla visto, muy bien.

I enjoyed this movie in spite of itself. It seemed so determined to rush through its run time with very little thought to pacing or character development. Both of these things are forced upon viewers with heavy handed dialogue. I’m supposed to believe Highmore’s character is super intelligent and can figure any issue out in the moment because we’re TOLD he solved an oil spill problem, which they never show us, and is being courted by oil companies? The one “big” turn or twist in this movie wasn’t all that impressive or emotional, but I still found the movie taught and somewhat intense given the situations all the characters get into. Liam Cunningham is great, but like his fellow actors his character falls into too many film tropes leaving his screen time flat. I’d say that’s mostly a dialogue issue as the script and concept here is pretty cool as far as bank job movies go. If you are looking for something that will somewhat satisfy a heist genre craving and won’t ever go off the rails it’s traveling then this is okay.

The Vault is not, in other words, just derivative—it’s also flabby and bland.
The film misses the opportunity for a suspenseful interweaving of sports spectatorship and its characters’ high-stakes gambits.
A Tale Of Two Movies
The first half of the film grabs your interest with intrigue and slick production, but too many holes in the script later, loses you. It's a gorgeously shot caper film, but tries too hard to be cool, and someone should have spent more time plugging those story holes, as one's interest drains by the end.

The Vault was a fun little heist film. Going into it I half expected it to be a throw away film. I was mainly watching it because I’m a huge Freddie Highmore fan and I also have come to love Liam Cunningham’s work. I’m very happy to say this film is anything but throw away.
Is it a masterpiece of film? No. But I don’t think anyone set out for it it be that either. It’s very fun and I think if you want to have some fun you should check it out.

The idea was good, but I didn't get some plot parts of it - like why the genius guy agreed so easily to some guys stealing stuff from bank. They said nowhere they will do good deeds with it afterwards. I would get it if they would have some good cause plan but this felt like just for their own gain. That felt a bit weird for me plot wise. Other thing - the story itself and the heist felt kinda same old same old if you have seen many heist movies. Not much to it and seemed very simplistic (of course he solved engineering miracle of century but it was shown so matter of fact that it felt boring)

From the trailer the story seemed like a great plot. Unfortunately the mediocre story telling stopped me from watching it halfway through. I do like the cast tho.

Boring AF. My wife and I gave up at less than 20 minutes in. WAY too slow, no real grab that far in means not worth my time considering how long the movie is.
