Supremely overrated: even Ben Kingsley so called intense performance only really works out briefly, and the heist caper that forms the rest of the film is incredibly weak.

Worth watching for the lead performances. Ray Winstone, Ben Kingsley and Ian McShane are all marvelously entertaining, but the rest of the film is a bit too dry and predictable. It really feels like a waste, because outside of the outstanding leads and a great start, the movie runs out of steam and just has no energy to it. This has legendary potential, but the final product is just good enough to be worthwhile. Maybe I just expected too much.

Surprisingly dated and mostly boring heist flick, barely saved by some occasional visual flourishes. As for Kingsley's performance, I seriously don't see what's so great about it, let alone why Winstone lets him walk all over him when he could easily snap his bones like Twiglets. It literally felt like watching Gilbert Gottfried shit all over Tony Soprano for over an hour. Skip it, sugar. Or don't, you know, I don't give a fuck.

This starts out a bit cheesy, but the music was good, the production quality was good & there was a lovely women or two. Then for the next 50% of the movie we are subjected to a crap load of retarded mobster posturing with Ben Kingsley playing a psychopathic nut job. Following that is a robbery that was sketchy at best. The ending was somewhat tense. I really can't recommend this movie, since I found most of it to be quite annoying.
