Well there it is, an expectation short lived. The Vault starting off rather interesting but it goes down real quick if you have watched other bank heist solid story line. The acting seemed disconnected and there was just no weight to it. Humanoid bad guys with shadows overcasting them just killed it as it is almost effortless to make this comedy into horror/thriller movie. Ghosts don't cast shadows ! Good movie to fall asleep to.

Within about 10 mins, you know there's something; a twist or a subplot coming, and when you see a big movie star as one of the characters, you know it's going to revolve around him. As soon as you know the previous story about the bank, you know what's up. It might have come as a surprise if it wasn't such a big time actor and he wasn't sporting that obvious 1980's cookie duster.Warning: SpoilerThe ending didn't make sense. It is not believable that the ghost robbers would be able to leave the bank they've been tethered to for so long, and if they were able to leave, it would be Franco's character that was trying to get revenge on the robbers, not the ghost robbers.Clifton Collins is an underrated actor and should have meatier roles.

This movie falls into multiple genre and I think it succeeds in all of them. This movie works as action, thriller and horror movie. + Good cast, not all are well known but roles are well cast. + Every actor did their best even the extras. + writing and Direction is really good. + BGM matches very well and kinda acts as the catalyst to the whole situation accordingly. + There is qite a few twists at the end. + Very short movie, doesn't bore you. Never really unravelled the mystery of the masked robber.Leaves one or two loose ends.The script is done in such a way that you feel sorry for both the hostages and robbers. There is a backstory for everyone the bank, robbers, and the assistant bank manager played by James Franco but it takes it's time to show you what's what and who's who. I enjoyed this movie and never felt bored I was entertained very well.

Everything in this movie is just perfectly done. I wasn't bored even for a moment. I cannot remember the last time I watched a movie with such an interest as this one. I recommend it.
