Charlie, the mastermind of a Venice heist, is overseen by John, a lifelong criminal. But the thieves are ruthlessly double-crossed by one of their own, Steve. In order to get their stolen gold bars back, Charlie enlists John's reluctant safecracking-prodigy daughter, Stella. But Steve proves himself to be one step ahead of them, and Charlie finds that he'll have to make some daring last-minute changes to their plan by creating the largest traffic jam in Los Angeles' history.

Add a CommentGreat story and cast! I was entertained by this fun popcorn movie!!
Stunt drivers were fantastic with the power boats and Mini Cooper cars. There is no honor among thieves. Crooks stealing from crooks.
A good but rather formulaic heist film. The Chicago Reader rates it thumbs up, but also says "mindless fun." That truly describes this film.
Lots of action, but has a very predictable and plain story
This is an excellent movie worth watching. I had forgot I had seen in the past and I once again found it very entertaining.
This movie is full of action and has many twists. The characters are witty and find a way to get justice for what wronged them.
I love a good heist movie, and this one does not disappoint. It races along, gives you some good laughs, and keeps your attention the entire time.
This crime/action movie is as much about spectacular car, speedboat, and helicopter chase scenes as about safe-cracking. It illustrates the role of luck (unexpected events) in the success or failure of a crime. The movie warns of the potential vulnerabilities of our web-based computer systems to "remote control".
I never saw the original movie with Michael Caine, so I can't compare the two versions. I can say that this one is fast-paced and enjoyable, with some great action scenes.
This is a well-made film, but the original film was far more fun. I strongly see you see the original film too and then form your own judgement.
