The Art of Steal - 20/06/2014
From writer Luc Besson (Woohoo) and director McG (oh no), The Art of Steal is a heist movie about the stealing of paintings and art
.
When Kurt Russell is betrayed by his brother on a painting robbery and sent to prison for 7 years (5 and and a half for good behaviour) he decides to go straight and work as a stunt performer at a monster truck show
.
When a new business opportunity arises, Kurt gets the old team back together, reluctantly teams up with his double crossing brother and brings along his new apprentice, Jay Baruchel.
The AoS is a fun film with some good little gags and the usual heist movie tropes. Not on par with Oceans, The Score, or The Italian Job but still an enjoyable ride.
Jay Baruchel is funny as usual, his voice always makes me giggle, and Kurt Russell is a good lead. Matt Dillon is fun as the brother and Terence Stamp is brilliant as an ex theif helping interpol to catch the thieves.
Another film to add to the Netflix list
