Athletic 12-year-old Maddy (Kristen Stewart) shares an enthusiasm for mountain climbing with her father, Tom (Sam Robards). Unfortunately, Tom suffers a spinal injury while scaling Mount Everest, and his family is unable to afford the surgery that can save him. Maddy decides to get the money for her father's operation by robbing a high-security bank. She relies on her climbing skills and help from her geeky friends (Max Thieriot, Corbin Bleu) to pull it off successfully.

Critics Consensus

An unimaginative heist movie aimed strictly at the preteen set.

Painfully bad. A real head-scratcher.

It's neither as funny as it needs to be nor serious enough to elicit more than a few crinkled brows from kids and their parents alike.

I feel like they balance that tricky plotline well so... kids can have a heist movie that's for them.

Neither the planning of the heist, nor its execution is done with the skill needed for it to be compelling.

Given that this is a movie made for preteens, I thought it was enjoyable.

A cinematic masterpiece with heart, humor, and hot moves. Kristen Stewart's best work.

I found this movie funny actually. Especially when the girl bribes the guys to help her by saying that she likes both of them. It's nothing amazing though, but it's good that children can see a heist film they will understand.
