The score

Threat advisory: Guarded - General risk of entertaining activities

Movie propaganda

There are no partners in crime.

Career thief Nick Wells (Robert De Niro) is about to mastermind a nearly impossible theft that will require his joining forces with a clever young accomplice, Jackie Teller (Edward Norton). The unlikely alliance, arranged by Nick's long time friend and fence Maximillian Beard (Marlon Brando), interrupts Nick's plan to retire from crime and settle down with his fiancée Diane (Angela Bassett). Worse - it requires that Nick violate his most important rule: always work alone.

Theatrical report

Cliché.

Old crim decides to retire but someone pulls him in for one last job. Robert plays a crusty but loveable old criminal called Robert De Niro, Edward plays a hormone fuelled young gun called Edward Norton. Marlon plays an old fat guy called Marlon Brando. There is some high tech criminal stuff, some sneaking around, some stupid security guards and a twist.

Just the one.

See if you can't spot it before they show you.

One for the hard-core crimophiles (Sexy beast is better).
