Product Description
Written and directed by Sacha Bennett, Tu£sday is a fast-moving, London-set heist story in which nothing is what is seems. By sheer coincidence, four experienced criminals, two beautiful bank clerks and one desperate, penniless man nearing retirement decide to rob the same bank on the same day. Two detectives (Kevin McNally and Dylan Brown) must use their interrogative expertise to piece together seemingly unrelated people and clues to determine who really stole the Meidan-i-Noor an emerald the size of a fist. Ingeniously plotted and featuring an all star cast of British talent that includes fast-rising star Ashley Waters (Bullet Boy, Speedracer), the film pulls off a major coup in reuniting Life on Mars co-stars John Simm and Philip Glenister. The duo ditch their TV police personas to feature as the head of a ring of audacious career criminals.

I saw this in the cinema first and as with any movie there are definite do's and don't's.
Don't expect a ten million pound blockbuster with special effects to go with it - there are other comments here about the budget. I've no idea what the film cost to make but clearly it wasn't made on a Hollywood style budget.
And don't expect entirely passive entertainment - script and plot make you work a bit for your money, you've got to keep up, the devil is in following the detail.
Do expect lots of fun, good lines, script twists, a few laughs, great cast with really good performances and a well crafted movie. It's engaging from beginning to end and well worth the watch. Got any more like this back there?

Purchased this DVD as I am a huge Life on Mars fan and also a huge fan of Kevin McNally.
Was quite surprised how much I enjoyed it.
Very low budget. The film does not take itself too seriously but has enough twists and turns to keep you interested right to the end and doesn't make the mistake that a lot of films do these days of thinking 'the longer the film the better'.
No, keep your audience wanting more; not wishing it would finish !!

I saw this when it came out in the cinema. Its obviously a small, low budget film, but its great fun with an amazing cast of some really big names.
the acting is strong and I through it was a really fun, if slight, romp. Old school fun British movie.

Monday or Tuesday?
This is such a good film! In my family we decided the action on Monday was very interesting and worth watching carefully especially as the end of the film was rather a cliche and... Read more
