Review

with all the star power you would expect really good things from this movie, but even if you don’t expect anything going into this film i think you’ll find yourself disappointed. it goes through the usual heist film motions, but a) it doesn’t have any really vibrant characters b) lacks the requisite snap in the dialogue and c) fails to outsmart just about anyone. granted it has some funny moments and the details of the twisted ending weren’t completely obvious, but it was mostly just a poor attempt.
