Review of Tower Heist (2011) by Ramona M — 09 Sep 2012

Great film and enjoyable from beginning to end. As usual many critics don't get it. I was not a Brett Ratner fan until now, but this was masterfully directed, no question. The pacing is perfect and the dialogue is excellently written, down to the word.

Camera work is stellar, in fact breathtaking at times. Even so, a project this good still wouldn't work if they didn't select ALL the right players for this ensemble. Matthew Broderick has always been the actor's actor, but you can add Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy to the list of those actors who actually improve the performance of castmates, but as it was, every actor and actress was excellent anyway.

Going to purchase this now!
