The Score (2001)

.
”When was it you started thinking you were better than me?”

Nick (Robert De Niro) is a safecracker who is ready to retire from the racket and focus on his jazz nightclub. Max (Marlon Brando) is the flamboyant fence. Jackie (Ed Norton) is the incredibly talented but volatile young thief. The plan is to break into a safe that’s thought to be ultimately secure in the Montreal customs house and make off with a $30M gold and bejeweled scepter.

This score can make them –- or break them.


Also appearing are Angela Bassett at Nick’s girlfriend Diane; Gary Farmer as Nick’s personal thug: Jamie Harold as Steve, the uber-geeky hacker Nick uses to break security codes; Paul Soles as Danny, the janitor.
