CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

bryanbph-82636 Maybe not as polished and as big budget as an Oceans film, but had a certain Guy Ritchie feel about it. I had to double-check and see if he was the Director. He wasn't, so my hat off to Jonathan Sobol for creating this great movie. Had the right mixture of fun, suspense, and action to make it a very enjoyable film. You knew most of the movie something unexpected was going to happen at the end, but I wasn't able to figure it out, so the ending was very enjoyable. Kurt Russell and Matt Dillon were great in the movie. Jason Jones who plays the Interpol agent is enjoyable to watch along side Terence Stamp. I really enjoyed this movie from start to finish.

Spacenaz This was a fun and funny twist on the perennial heist theme! I enjoyed the performances of Russel and Dillon particularly. This was a lot funnier than your standard heist movie. Kurt Russel is always classic as the vulgar ex-con. The two funniest characters were Francie and Uncle Paddy. My favorite segment was when Guy was telling the story of the theft of Mona Lisa, it was a fun segment with an entertaining way of telling it. I like how it was fast paced and funny, it kept the laughs coming while keeping the pace moving. One of the funniest bits was when Russel was like "No, I'm being held at gunpoint by a pirate! I'm in the bathroom, what do think Francie?". The side story of the Interpol agent tracking them is quite funny too. I had never heard of it, but the synopsis looked entertaining, and I like the actors so I tried it and enjoyed it. It is a brief movie, so even if you aren't enjoying the ride, it will be over all too quickly. Many fun twists to be had, give this one a go. 8/10.

Bob An This is a very entertaining movie! Every minute of it is interesting and I really enjoyed it a lot! It is fun and has a great story with a twist towards the end!I like art and movies about art theft are very interesting to me. This one had a Gaughuin and Seurat. But it is not a movie about the paintings but about the people behind the theft. I liked how they portrayed the 'minds' behind the operation. And they did shine alight on what are people's motives for the theft : money, art itself, fame.I found it was quite interesting that they told the story of Mona Lisa theft at the beginning of XX century. I read a book about it and remembered it while they were talking about the poor Italian who stole Mona Lisa.I also found it very nice that they did what they did with the original painting in the movie! I can imagine what a joy is to hold a masterpiece!This movie is not a masterpiece in its genre, but it is next best thing! I recommend!

blanche-2 "The Art of the Steal" from 2013 stars Kurt Russell, Matt Dillon, Terence Stamp and some Canadian actors.Russell plays Crunch Calhoun, a motorcyclist who throws exhibitions for money. He is also an art thief but he's trying to stay away from that. With his brother Nicky (Dillon) being released from prison, however, an opportunity presents itself for one more heist.The theft is to be of a religious book worth a fortune. They bring back the old team, and then Dillon comes up with what he thinks is a better idea. The end has a neat twist.Terence Stamp as a paroled art thief who has to work with Interpol is great, as is that of a Canadian actor, Jay Baruchel as Francie Tobin. Another Canadian, Jason Jones, who plays the Interpol agent, is way over the top. Russell does a good job as does Dillon. Russell is excellent at this type of character, he mines the humor that's there and his presence pulls things together.I found the film too derivative for me and despite some good moments, including the beginning which took place in Poland, and the first scam that's reminisced about, which was fabulous, I admit my interest waned. There have been too many of this type of film done better.
