Bank robbery | The Town (2010)

[@yaboifry2071]

“Listen, it’s not your money. You understand? Don’t lie to us again.” Perfect words to use to convince people that it’s not worth being a hero.

[@voteZDLR]

Yeah, honestly the only other thing you can say to similar effect is "Even if you bank here, this money is FDIC insured anyway. You won't lose a thing. The bank will. No heroes then, alright?"

[@voteZDLR]

@XDNA POISON It's not entirely original, I got it from Breaking Bad originally but the fact is banks are required to carry FDIC insurance. In the episode "Peek-A-Boo" when Jesse is basically holding those two tweakers up for holding Skinny Pete up, the tweaker says he can pay Jesse back another way, they got this safe in their backyard and "BECAUSE it's FDIC insured, the customers of the bank will be unaffected" -- the only one affected will be the bank. This is after Jesse exclaims "Wait, that's my bank!" when he realizes the ATM was stolen from his own bank. If it's a line in Payday I am not sure, but it's true in concept though.

[@JD_tcb]

@@voteZDLR It's from everything lmao. *"On the floor, asshole. The money's insured so it's not worth dyin' for"* --Point Break. *"We're not here for your money, we're here for the bank's money---you're money is insured by the federal government"* --Heat.

[@JD_tcb]

But she wasn't being a hero. And that "test" was kind of pointless---why ask a question you already know the answer to? And what other part of the robbery relied on trusting an employee? lmao still cool.

[@voteZDLR]

@@JD_tcb Yeah and someone else had commented it is also in the game Payday 2 but it appears the comment is no longer there? Anyway yeah you hear people say that in movies, shows, games, etc all the time but it's only true up to a certain amount. I mean for all intents and purposes it will cover most of the damage from a typical bank robbery but I don't know the exact amount where it is cut off at, probably several hundred thousand if not a few million dollars but don't quote me on that.

I like how in this movie the characters are so in depth. The one bank robber actually tries to be nice and calm the teller down so she can open the vault. Its a nice change from the constant violent angry robbers you usually see in movies

[@brianperez379]

Because they knew angry makes people more scared and nervous if you calm there stat down the process goes by faster this scene is the most overlooked scene in movie history because most people say the way they did things wasn't right but that whole scene was spot on a huge success in robbery history from the way they did everything

[@NazriB]

Lies again? Babies And Roses

[@eginteractive]

Oddly enough these types of robberies are exceptionally rare. This is what is known as a "takeover-style robbery." Most bank robberies are note jobs, as it's far easier to get away with (though normally the perpetrator only gets away with the cash in the pans and nothing from the vault). A takeover-style robbery on average yields higher "profit" but the risk exponentially goes up when you are seen walking in with a whole crew armed to the teeth.

[@magmat0585]

@@eginteractive Yep. Especially these days, you'd be better off jacking ATMs then going after a bank, bank = fed involvement and there are a lot more ways to get caught now. Back when this movie takes place, when security cameras went to onsite tapes and everything wasn't in digital, you might, MIGHT have had a chance. Nowadays, naw. The cops will catch you, just a matter of time. And banks these days don't carry enough cash to make it worthwhile

I use to work at a bank, the vaults being timed is legit, however the key he used to open the smaller vault inside the main vault he would need another code to unlock it as well. We just see him turn the lock and it opens, doesn’t quite work like that.
