Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
It doesn't quite work, but there's enough here to make us look forward to the Russos' next offering.

rotten:
Collinwood seems like a series of sketches, with caricatures instead of characters.

The picture runs a mere 84 minutes, but it's no glance. It's a head-turner -- thoughtfully written, beautifully read and, finally, deeply humanizing.

rotten:
The actual heist is the high point, just as in the Italian film, and so raffish and disorganized was the gang that I can see how someone might enjoy this movie, coming to it for the first time.

An infectious caper flick.
