CommentsXp Best movie ever!
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
paul2001sw-1 Con-trick films are a well-worn genre: perhaps almost every one of them recalls 'The Sting', while the ending of 'Cash' brings to mind superior efforts like Mamet's 'House of Games' or my personal favourite, Fabian Bielinsky's 'Nine Queens'. But the particular story of a glamorous investigator on the trail of an equally glamorous criminal reminded me most of 'The Thomas Crown Affair', even before the use of split-screens, surely an act of intentional homage. The movie's glamorous portrayal of smoking also seemed like a gesture to another era. But unlike the best films of its type, there's no deep character study here. The film is entirely lightweight, and even has comedy music to underscore its critical moves. The result is fun and lavish, but also utterly shallow, and none of the developments really take you by surprise as nothing is really credible even before the under-layers are revealed. Even as a comedy-thriller, it's lacking substance and it's hard to care about any of the protagonists. It is mildly entertaining, but devoid of any deeper purpose, and there's really nothing here you won't have seen before.
Guy CA$H is a French con thriller that feels like it could have been made at any point in the last fifty years -- which is a good thing. The plot is nearly impossible to describe due to the many double crosses - and frankly it would be a shame to spoil it anyway - but suffice to say that it's about a con-man who sets out for vengeance on the person who murdered his brother. The cinematography and direction are a little unsure - not quite as slick as they want to be - but the many very good actors (some British) led by super-charmer Jean Dujardin and buttressed by several very pretty girls more than make up for it, as do the lovely locations in the South of France and the general old-fashioned charm of the piece. The plot changes course practically every ten minutes and even though, looking back, it's utterly unbelievable, it's still a lot of fun to watch.
kosmasp A french caper movie, with a stellar cast. Enjoyable and kinda light, despite the criminal background of the movie. Of course you might see where this is going way before it actually gets revealed, but as with other movies, but as a saying goes: "The journey is its own reward" and it is true with this film here too.The actors seemed to have great fun and you will have to, if you let yourself enjoy this crime caper, that has some of the finest contemporary and popular french actors in it. I did watch it at the Fantasy Filmfest in Stuttgart and was one of the few that liked it. Most thought it wasn't anything special or new, but that wasn't the point in my view. So just sit back, relax and enjoy (if you can and are able to)
donby-1 A scam is afoot, but then there is a double-cross, triple-cross, quadruple-cross, etc. I found the film enjoyable, parts of it filmed inside some very posh hotels that you usually don't see in films. Also, there are the Extremely Attractive three lead actors, very easy on the eyes. Some of the critical reviewers seem to have been expecting Citizen Kane, which of course it isn't. But it's fun to try to differentiate the good guys from the bad guys. You won't be bored !French films in the past have gotten a bad rap accused of being too "arty". This is certainly not true of this offering, whose purpose is only to entertain. Enjoy !
