The Inside Man
The film depicts a gang of robbers broke into a bank and seized customers as hostages, and threatened the police. "I have planned a perfect bank robbery", the head of the gang said, this is a battle of wits, not a battle of force . Sure enough, the police have not used the "SWAT", "lone hero" insist forcing, but got a hostage negotiation experts attempt to rely on rhetoric subdued. However, this did not work. Looks like the robbers who rob the bank when they faced the enormous money did nothing, just very careful to handle the hostages, and think about other things. At the end of the film, the negotiation failed, and eventually solve the problem by force, the original goal of the robbers is the bank boss who tried to hide some ugly secrets.The robbers finally run away because they wore the same uniforms as the hostages. The head told the audience the whole story and why he want to rob the bank but without taking any money. Why this movie called " The Inside Man"? My understanding is that the film's inside man means hiding insider manipulation, the unspoken rules, internal set of rules but the external is another set of so called inside man. And its centralized performance as the banker,Miss White, Mayor trio. These people regard themselves as elites, since they control the operations of the society and hold the behind-the-scenes resources. But the civilians who are ignorant outsiders. Miss White can deal lots of issues by the relationship, even helped Osama bin Laden's nephew to buy a house; The banker believes that he can rely on money to solve problems, including doing charity to seek forgiveness of himself. He even thinks that he can meet the robbers' requirement of an airplane; Obviously the Mayor has some problems known by White,so he put pressure on detective Keith to let White deal with this case. These people are the insiders, they think that they can be arbitrarily trampled on the ideal of the little people and they can
