Review of Heist (2001) by Casey G — 05 Aug 2008
This is one lingotastic, cliche riddled switcheroo-fest. They say everything twice, "You're burnt old man, you're burnt. It's burnt - burnt." No shit.
Mamet must've been going for some neo heist homage to classic hollywood gangster films but it all comes off as one giant melodramatic exercise in awkwardness.
I will admit Delroy's shotty moves do have old school western blowback appeal.
