What a ride. It was such a fun, exciting movie. It was also quite funny, and I found myself laughing a lot in this movie. Definently better than I could have expected. Salma Hayek is, well, Salma Hayek. She's beautiful in this movie. The cast does a fair job, though nothing spectacular, but that's pretty much expected. They threw in a few twists in the movie, though most of the movie seemed a little too predictable. The ending was kind of surprising, and very well done.

Surprisingly funny. One of the best movies I've seen with just a purely oversaturated fun factor. Good performances all around, and a very ingenious screenplay. I recommend it to anyone looking for a general feel good fun movie.
B+

What an underseen and underappreciated fun ride! The movie is a much more entertaning heist flick than Ocean's Eleben and Ocean's Twelve will ever be and is almost up therew with The Thomas Crown Affair. The heist part of the movie is not even that important, it is more about the great interplay between Pierce Brosnan (cool as ever here) and Woody Harrelson (wonderfully inept). Salma Hayek and Don Cheadle don't get much to do, but they aren't sorely missed either. Brosnan and Harrelson more than make up for that. I was surprised by how funny the movie actually was. A perfect excercise in pure fun. It should have been a summer flick. The only major gripe I have is the ending, I would have prefered Harrelson's character to finally win, but other than that, the film is a blast.

Wasnt too good, but I really like Pierce Brosnan who makes it watchable, and I nice return from Harrelson.

Slight but fun caper comedy. Brett Ratner serves up a combination of action and comedy that focuses much more on the latter; so much so in fact that the plot and accompanying action almost seem like afterthoughts. Nonetheless, the cast has considerable chemistry and everything clicks into place enough that the film works as solid entertainment.
Grade - B
