The Art of the Steal

ComedyCrime

Directed by Jonathan Sobol

Crunch Calhoun, a third-rate motorcycle daredevil and part-time art thief, teams up with his snaky brother to steal one of the most valuable books in the world. But it's not just about the book for Crunch — he's keen to rewrite some chapters of his own past as well. From TMDB

    Sure, "The Art of the Steal" is a cheesy Guy Ritchie-style heist movie on Netflix. On the plus side, it has Terence Stamp as the driest motherfucker on the planet; he's worth watching.

    In the movie The Art of the Steal, our hero isn’t pulling off heists in museums — he’s pulling them off in broad daylight. He subverts free elections, pirouettes through loopholes, and treats “legal grey area” like it’s his personal playground.

    Saw a Kurt Russell film I've never heard of before - 2013's THE ART OF THE STEAL. A fun, somewhat light-hearted heist movie with a decent cast to boot. I'd have preferred if the last 10 minutes wasn't so incredibly rushed though. Give me some time to take the whole thing in next time!

    The Art of the Steal - a simple and cliched, but fun heist comedy with a great cast - is probably Stamp at his most commercial. Everything in the film was beneath him. He still did a great job though.

    Heist films rely on misdirection, but The Art of the Steal crosses a line for me. There is a difference between withholding information and showing scenes that never actually happened. If the viewer cannot trust what they see, the whole story starts to feel unstable.

    The two half-brothers and the art heist. I like heist movies, once they were making great ones, but not anymore. I have heard about this, though haven't seen it till now. Seems it's a decent film, but came at the wrong time of the history. You know, the same film 15-20 years ago would have made a better impact among people, as well as commercially. Nowadays, the youngsters want only superhero action-sci-fi films. That should not be the reason for a film's failure. Instead, they should have…
