Nice, entertaining, ordinary.

Rating: 6/10 (4 January 2007)

I somehow thought I had missed something because I hadn't seen the movie until today. I like all the actors (I'm especially a fan of Charlize Theron and Edward Norton) and I like crime movies, and I really liked the trailer. However, I was wrong. Don't get me wrong - it's not a bad movie. But it is just as standard as it gets. It's technically well done, you have a lot of beautiful pictures and pursuits, colors and light are all very nice and the cut is smooth. The script script is 100% writing school style, different characters, a clear objective and plenty of obstacles to overcome, some serious parts but also something to laugh. The acting is just right, because the script is just not courageous enough to call for anything extraordinary. There is even the right amount (which is plenty) of small mistakes to make it just another popcorn movie. The kind you want to see with someone when which movie you watch is not what matters.
