What we have here is basically two hours of inventive, colorfully imagined entertainment, with the Brinks job laid on top: A movie-movie, so to speak, and fun from beginning to end.

Chicago Sun-Times
The Brink's Job comes off as a black comedy with a sour, misplaced sense of humor. Falk also seems misplaced...

The movie is told in three different parts. The first features a sense of humor that progressively disappears. The second focuses on the bank robbers and their act. And the third reflects on the multiple consequences. [Full Review in Spanish]

What a surprise, and kind of a welcome one, that "The Brink's Job" is as much a character-based comedy as it is a thriller.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
The Brink's Job never really catches fire, with both the humor and the suspense simmering on low for too much of the time.

Description by OLDIES.com:
The Brinks Job is a high-spirited account of a gang of small time crooks who manage to pull off one of the most infamous heists in history. Mastermind Tony (Peter Falk) assembles a team of petty criminals, decked out in Halloween masks, to rob a Brinks armored truck in Boston. Featuring a superb ensemble cast that also includes Peter Boyle, Warren Oates, Paul Sorvino, Sheldon Leonard, Gena Rowlands and Allen Goorwitz, this gritty, whimsical tale was directed by Academy Award winner William Friedkin (The French Connection) and will have you laughing all the way to the bank!
