Review: You would think that a film with a top-notch cast, sumptuous visuals, and thrilling action would be a joy to behold. You would think. No pun intended, where did this film go off-track?
For starters if you're going to make a heist picture you should at least make the participants likable. We're really in Sean Connery's camp after he murders one of his henchmen. The only apparent reason that Connery is given a hero's cheer at the film's conclusion is because the script dictates it to. The heist is thrilling, but so what if the perpetrators leave you cold.
