Peter Cushing stars in the Hammer holiday crime drama _Cash on Demand_. The story follows an uptight bank manager who’s taken hostage by a bank robber who’s posing as an insurance agent, and is forced to help him rob the safe. The writers do a good job at setting up and executing the robbery. A little too good actually, as there aren’t that many moments of tension or suspense where the robber’s plans are foiled or he has to adapt to something unexpected. Still, Cushing and co-star Andre Morell deliver strong performances. While it’s entertaining and has a bit of intrigue, ultimately _Cash on Demand_ is a mediocre and forgettable film.
