Overview
Two sophisticated jewel thieves join forces to steal $30 million in uncut jewels.
This was a surprisingly enjoyable little crime drama. Reynolds is at his best in this movie, and Lesley-Anne Down is fantastic as his love interest. Still, the movie wouldn’t work without the heist, and the cherry on top is the ending that I didn’t see coming but should have.
