Stone of Destiny


Caught this flick over the weekend, a nicely-scaled caper film inspired by The Taking of the Stone of Destiny by Ian R. Hamilton, QC. Good to see a heist movie that skipped the obligatory "insert film loop of empty hallway into security camera montage, thus fooling TV watching guard." I keep expecting some real night watchman to jump up in the theatre and shout, "Guys, that doesn't work! It never worked!"
