Ordinary Decent Criminal


Set in Ireland, we follow the adventures of the leader of a gang of robbers, who manage to both evade and astound the police. Our hero (?) is married to two sisters, and is unusually creative in plotting his escapades. As a family man, he has a gentle side, which is balanced by a really vicious streak when he feels he is being cheated. The story is essentially a battle of wits between the cops and the robber.
We regret the lack of US ratings.

Ian Douglas: A witty crime thriller. The torture scene is particular painful. A crowd pleaser.
