Advertising bigwig Simon Aboud summons an impressive array of talent for his debut feature, pitched as an odd mix of indie-Brit parlour farce and Dog Day Afternoon .

Craig Roberts ( Submarine ) is the hapless bell boy caught up in a heist-gone-wrong that leaves him trapped in a stifling mayfair jewellery boutique with Imogen Poots, Timothy Spall and Kevin McKidd.

With all the style and depth of a luxury fashion ad, it’s an elegant let down. dripping with money and good intentions, it’s a beautiful but clumsy attempt to disguise an unpolished script as a hidden gem.
