Heist

Heist

I thought this was an average film, nothing great, nothing horribly bad about it.

Maybe I was disappointed with how stupid the gang from Devito's side were depicted in this film.

I found the dialog to be nondescript. I didn't find much of any of the banter all that clever. Character motivations were one note, and not really that convincing to me.

Gene Hackman and Delroy Lindo give their perfunctionary good performances, but Rebecca Pidgeon, as always, bugged me with her deadpan delivery of her husband's dialog. Devito played his character so devoid of humanity, it was just creepy and pathetic at times.

I give it a grade of C or 2 stars.
