Review of Focus (2015) by Scribehard — 27 Feb 2015
Focus starts out great, following in the footsteps of some of the terrific con films (it pays homage to) by being confident and strong enough to let the audience be a part of the con. Once the film abandons that approach, though, and relies instead on weak deception and convenient twists, the audience is no longer the film’s partner.
Instead, the audience becomes the film’s mark, and no one wants to be taken like that.
