With almost no lasting buzz and a box office loss, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for anyone who loves watching a plan come together and anyone looking to switch off and smile. The fun is in the planning, the double-crosses and the moment it all goes sideways. Same wavelength as Raising Arizona.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Moves at a clip, at 1 hr 49 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Danish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.
Two bumbling scrap metal thieves - father and son - steal the wrong painting during a museum heist. The painting turns out to be the only original Rembrandt painting in Denmark, and all hell breaks loose. What do you do when you've got Interpol, the Danish police and the entire Danish underworld on your heels? And who was this Rembrandt guy anyway?
