Review: What a great little movie. I had never heard of this, but it popped up on my recommendations and got good reviews, so I gave it a try. This so much reminded me of Donald Westlake's comic crime caper novels. A great little story with plenty of laughs. The plot involves a group of low rent, misfit criminals trying to pull of a heist of a lifetime, or as the call it, their 'Bellini'. Well, complications occur, problems arise, and the whole thing gets rather messy. William H. Macy is great along with Isaiah Washington, Sam Rockwell, Michael Jeter, and Luis Guzman. A great ensemble cast in a highly enjoyable, funny movie. A sad note, I had heard Michael Jeter died recently, which is quite sad. I thought he was great in the Green Mile.

Summary: I laughed hard
Review: Yes, it's not a perfect movie, and for once, George Clooney was the least enjoyable character. But, damn if this flick didn't make me laugh pretty hard a few times. It's silly and not intended to be anything but light entertainment. What's interesting to note is that three of the main characters were in 'The Green Mile', and three of them were in 'Out of Sight'.
