'Robbery!' on the Spanish billboard

Amaia Salamanca and Óscar Jaenada in Robbery!

Amaia Salamanca and Óscar Jaenada are part of the cast of ¡Atraco!

Guillermo Francella, Amaia Salamanca, Nicolás Cabré, Óscar Jaenada, Daniel Fanego and Jordi Martínez lead the cast of 'Robbery!', the new comedy produced between Spain and Argentina and directed by Eduard Cortés.

The synopsis of 'Heist!' It places us in the winter of 1.955, when General Perón, exiled in Panama after being overthrown as president of Argentina by a military coup, finds himself in an economic situation of absolute precariousness. One of his assistants proposes to pawn the extraordinary collection of jewels from Evita, who died a few years ago. But it must be done without the general knowing because he would never authorize getting rid of them: for Perón they are a talisman.

The assistant travels to Madrid and manages to secretly pawn them in a prestigious jewelry store in the city. But a fortuitous event endangers the custody of the legendary jewels and, alerted the Peronists, in order to recover them they organize a robbery. One of the most insane robberies in crime history.

With this argument, in principle correct, 'Robbery!' what was one of the Spanish films at the San Sebastian Festival, he means well and tries to be a lighthearted comedy, but it stumbles in several aspects, and it is that it remains halfway between the classic black police film and the stereotypical couple comedy.

The other failure that we see in the film is its excessive duration, which we consider unnecessary, although everything is not negative, and it should be noted that they have achieved a fairly acceptable reconstruction of the time and the interpretation of Salamanca that is very up to the task.
