A New Wave is a 2006 independently produced comedy film written and directed by Jason Carvey.
A would-be artist is working in a dead-end job as a bank teller.
At the urging of his movie-obsessed slacker roommate, he agrees to be the inside man for a bank heist.
While the heist plans are coordinated, the artist's girlfriend arranges for him to have his first gallery exhibition.
[citation needed] Reviews for the film were mixed, with Film Threat cheering it as "a deceptive sleeper"[1] while FilmCritic.com complained that it was "a post-modern pastiche of heist flick and comedy, the kind popularized by Reservoir Dogs and knocked off endlessly ever since it was released.
