A lame remake of a sophisticated 60's caper movie thanks to an amazingly lackluster script and drab direction.

Rating: Null/10 (10 October 2003)

The saddest thing about this unnecessary remake is that the mini-coopers provide all the personality in it. A good cast is left expressionless, without any witticisms or even a chance to exploit their charms. Unforgivable, when you think about how much money they spent on this unoriginal crime flick. It's way worse than a lot of the straight-to-cable Cinemax actioners. Marky's becoming the king of remakes; not a good career move, since most remakes tend to stink like this one. The fact that they released Michael Caine's charming original version on DVD the same day only enhances this remake's blunders.
