The robber is played by Danny Glover, who was Mel Gibson's partner in the Lethal Weapon series of films (also directed by Richard Donner). When he pulls down the mask they look at each other for a second and a few notes from the score of Lethal Weapon play as they look at each other and shake their heads. Also when leaving the bank, Danny Glover is heard saying "I'm too old for this shit." which he says (or a variation) of in all 4 Lethal Weapon movies.
