BMX Bandits (film)

BMX Bandits (released as Short Wave in the United States) is a 1983 Australian crime comedy action film directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith and starring Nicole Kidman, Angelo D'Angelo and James Lugton.

Stephen Vagg of Filmink described it as "perhaps the greatest Australian kids’ film ever, a brilliantly fun and high-spirited heist tale."

In the film, a professional band of criminals is given orders to perform a payroll robbery. The law-enforcement-grade walkie-talkies with which it intends to utilize to successfully elude the police are stolen by local teenaged kids, in which the gang is then compelled to pursue the juvenile thieves.
