How to Rob a Bank (2024)

Quartile rating: 6.5/10 · 1 rating

In this true-crime documentary, a charismatic rebel in 1990s Seattle pulls off an unprecedented string of bank robberies straight out of the movies.

The Quartile Take

A reasonably entertaining true-crime documentary about a charismatic 1990s Seattle bank robber. The story has natural narrative momentum and a colorful subject, earning an above-average plot score. Cinematography is standard documentary fare with archival footage and talking-head interviews. Novelty is modest—the true-crime doc format is crowded, though the specific subject and his theatrical MO give it some personality. Acting is not applicable in the traditional sense; interviewee performances and subject charisma are adequate but unremarkable. The ending wraps up the story satisfactorily without a particularly memorable payoff.
