Not especially funny or thrilling, Tower Heist does offer a proven cast of name actors and a topical story. In fairness, I viewed it on an airliner seatback screen. While seeing it in the theater is no longer an option, viewing it on a big flatscreen in a home theater may have stimulated a hi…

Thunderbolt And Lightfoot still entertains nearly half a century after it premiered. The star power of Clint Eastwood and a young Jeff Bridges see to that, as does a cockamamy story about Montana bank robbers. Mostly it’s a first-rate buddy picture, not unlikely buddies but very likely budd… |

This is definitely a great Heist movie that was done so cleverly and brilliant. The acting the action, it was done very well. |

The slang for corporate recruiter once connoted a frisson of danger. Then “Headhunter” lost its edge. Headhunters returns it and then some. An insanely funny thriller, it rivals fellow Scandinavian noir classic Girl with the Dragon Tattoo…

This movie was entertaining and engaging, albeit a bit humdrum for the likes of Micheal Caine and Demi Moore. Caine fits as a loveable but cunning older janitor with a great idea, and Demi plays a professionally passed-over and now disgruntled negotiator at a London Diamond dealer. A fairly simpl… |
