Nothing really new in this heist flick, but ...

Rating: 8/10 (25 April 2007)

... it's really well done. If you see the movie, you might have guessed what this movie is aiming for (because you've seen similar heist movies), but still you will be amazed by this film! And that is a credit to all involved (starting from the scriptwriter, to the producers, director and cast).
Although I have to say that I don't think you can guess, where this movie is going to go 100%. But it's cut and pasted together in a manner, that will make multiple views of the film more than enjoyable. So you might not understand what is going on, when you see a flash"forward" (as opposed to a flashback, but I just created that word, I don't think it exists), but you will get there sooner than later. Because Spike Lee knows that the audience is not stupid, he partly gives away the ending ... It's right there in front of you, so that the subplot becomes more relevant ... you will see!
