‘How To Rob A Bank’ Is A Bust With Rotten Tomatoes Critics
The crew’s viral heists turn them into online folk heroes as an FBI agent and a hacker race to stop them.
- On Friday, November 13, 2026, Amazon MGM Studios released director David Leitch's 'How to Rob a Bank' nationwide, starring Nicholas Hoult; the action-comedy currently holds a 42% Tomatometer score from 36 reviews.
- Led by "The Wolf" , the robbers broadcast heists online to 30 million viewers, claiming "90% of bank robberies go at least well enough" to justify their crimes and attract a devoted following.
- FBI agent John West recruits software engineer Reagan to track the crew using her illegal tracking program; West fears his failure to capture the robbers will define his career legacy.
- Critics praised the film's energetic action choreography but panned its disjointed structure and superficial social commentary, which reviewers called a "trite diversion" from the heist sequences; tonal shifts between melodrama and action were awkwardly handled.
- Industry observers note the irony of Amazon MGM producing anti-capitalist satire; following the "eat-the-rich" trend of 'Parasite,' the film attempts to blend topical themes with commercial action, though reviewers remain divided on its execution.
