Review of How to Rob a Bank (2007) by James R — 25 Aug 2008

Sharp, stylish, witty, this move keeps the audience guessing, not to mention laughing. The premise of this flick was just off-the-wall enough to be believable, and the questions of who can be trusted and who is playing whom didn't let up until the very end. The interjections of social commentary both serious and ridiculous added some fun spice to the thrills.

I was gratified to see Gavin Rossdale acting again since Constantine, though his character was a bit prone to expletives. Nick Stahl was very LaBouef-esque in his knowing nothing but still taking control of the situation, and Erika Christensen was both gorgeous and amusing.

I'm sure the unbelievability card can be played frequently with this movie, but honestly I didn't care. I had fun watching it.
