Sheer Entertainment

Rating: 7/10 (27 June 2012)

I watched this a few years back and i remember being really critical about this film because at the time i was more into heart wrenching drama, stellar acting etc. and that caused me to be a bit of a tight ass when it came to enjoying a mindless fun caper flick like this.
Maybe some of the negative reviews are from people stuck in that frame of mind but luckily i've grown beyond it enough to appreciate this film for what it is: 100% pure entertainment.
The acting is solid all around which is not the case for a lot of films; the pace is blistering hot and never lags; there are some innovative scenes that will blow your mind just trying to figure out- How'd they do that!!??; the characters are well drawn while avoiding sentimentality; and all the ingredients are whipped into a fine recipe for a tasty movie dish!
