Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Vault (2021)

Thom, a genius engineering student about to graduate, is inundated with dozens of job offers. The only one that piques his interest is the one that has a hint of danger and tons of secrecy: a heist of the Bank of Spain's vault. What makes it so intriguing is the fact that no one knows what the vault even is.

Though completely outlandish, it felt somehow so true that I had to look it up to confirm that it's complete fiction. Very fun with a mission-impossible-on-a-budget vibe. My big complaint is that Freddy Highmore barely even registers as a personality. He's so vanilla he's almost a blank.
