105. Bandits (2001)

February 16, 2014

I had wanted to see Bandits since I was in high school and some of my friends saw it and kept quoting it. Bandits was a little too long, but it was still a fun movie. It follows two bank robbers (Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton) as they break out of jail and evade authorities while becoming overnight celebrities with their eccentric bank robbing techniques. They call themselves the Sleepover Bandits, so named because they go to the bank manager's house the night before a heist and spend the night with them, learning all the details about the bank before they rob the place. Eventually, they both fall in love with Cate Blanchett, after she hits Thornton with her car and then drives him to their secret hideout. The movie dragged for a while in the middle, but had a very fitting twist ending that made the movie highly enjoyable and worth the watch.
