Torrente is released from jail in 2018. The Spain he comes out to is not to his liking and he decides to become an "outlaw". By means of a contact made while in prison, Torrente seeks out John Marshall, the man in charge of security when construction was underway on the main EuroVegas casino-hotel. The person best suited to planning the sting, Marshall, explains that they will need to organise a group of experts, which Torrente will set about recruiting from among his "contacts". The heist of the century is up and running. (San Sebastian International Film Festival)

It's just not the same anymore, unfortunately. Our wild man steps out of prison only to find that the world has moved on without him. His car's been taken over by some squatter, his favorite singer's grave is covered in graffiti, and Atlético Madrid's stadium has been demolished. To top it off, Catalonia's broken away from Spain, and everyone around him is suddenly way more aggressive and tough on him. This is the guy who used to rally the crew for joint busts and always called the shots in the brothel, deciding which girl went with who. The start of the movie was good, the middle dragged on, but the ending picked up a bit. The action scenes were solid, and it was definitely a surprise to see Alec Baldwin make an appearance. But compared to the brilliance of the fourth film, this one was a bit of a letdown.
