The Art of the Steal
THE ART OF THE STEAL goes down like a good scotch, providing smooth, transient satisfaction with a nice finish. The blend: a washed-up stunt biker/getaway driver (Kurt Russell) assembles the old crew, including his backstabbing brother (Matt Dillon), for one last big heist, while Interpol’s hound (Terence Stamp at his deadpan driest) sniffs at their heels. There will be complications, so pay close attention. Where bigger, flashier flicks (say, NOW YOU SEE ME) tried to mix this froth and failed, this unheralded little find hits the spot. Stick through the credits to chuckle at outtakes. –YSM
The damn movie disappeared so fast, I didn’t get a chance to see it. Will have to catch on Netflix or Amazon Prime. Sigh.
I’m sure it will be streamable any minute now, which will do just fine.
