Our TV movie pick for tonight (Monday, 21 April) is Den of Thieves.
The film is perfect if you're in the mood for a high-octane crime thriller tonight.
Directed by Christian Gudegast, this gritty thriller follows an intense cat-and-mouse game between an elite unit of the LA County Sheriff’s Department and a highly organised gang of bank robbers.
Led by the tough and unconventional 'Big Nick' O'Brien (played by Gerard Butler), the sheriff's unit becomes obsessed with stopping a crew planning an ambitious heist on the Federal Reserve Bank.
As the story unfolds, both sides experience shifting loyalties, unexpected twists, and a blurring of moral lines.
With intense sequences, complex characters and a runtime of 2 hours and 20 minutes, it's a solid choice for an evening of suspense and action.
Furthermore, the sequel, Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, drops on Amazon Prime Video on April 25.
Before then, Den of Thieves airs on Film4 tonight at 11.05pm.
