MovieMagicScore Overview
Auto-generatedWritten and directed by David Mamet, this 2001 thriller threads action, crime, and drama through the story of a veteran thief whose latest score goes wrong when he is caught on camera. Betrayed by his fence and pressured from every side, he is forced into one final, dangerous job. Sharp, talky, and full of double-crosses, the film trades in cons, shifting loyalties, and the gamesmanship of professionals who never quite trust one another. Its tone is cool and tightly wound. It appeals to viewers who enjoy heist pictures, hard-boiled crime drama, and clever plots built on deception. MagicMovieScore: 6.3.
