Every guy loves a good heist film, and Spike Lee hits up his go-to guy Denzel Washington to make the coolest and most interesting bank robbery flick since Dog Day Afternoon. Spike puts aside his usual politics and creates a genuine blockbuster with sharp dialogue and a plot that'll keep you guessing for two hours straight. Repeat viewings are a must, as are the deleted scenes and the honest sit-down between Spike and Denzel in which they talk about their history (this is their fourth movie together). The only place we find fault is the title. If you change one letter it becomes Inside Men, and we're guessing that's probably a totally different experience.
