Description:When his brother is killed attempting to rob an armored truck owned by Skorsky (Lee J. Cobb), Tony Ferris (Gary Lockwood) determines to prove it can be done. He gathers a gang of crooks, and with the help of Skorsky's secretary Ann (Elke Sommer), he gets the plans for the route of the armored truck. They waylay it in the desert, hide it in a hole dug in the sand, and cover it until the search stops. Meanwhile, Douglas (Jack Palance) is investigating Skorsky for mob ties and thinks the heist is part of it. Before it's over, Ferris's men start turning against each other. Douglas figures out that Ann is the inside person who has access to the info. The mob thinks Skorsky is trying to make off with their money. It all ends with everyone gathering in the desert when one of Ferris' men blows up the truck, spraying money and gold everywhere. Douglas gets Skorsky and mob. Ferris and Ann are caught, but Ferris is happy because he proved Skorsky's trucks could be broken into.

Review - They Came to Rob Las Vegas

Long. Nobody to root for. The fact that Ferris proved the trucks could be broken into but was still caught wasn't a satisfying conclusion for me.
