Henry's Crime (4/10)

It started off promising not to be bad. Then it was at a slow pace. Then there was a massive loophole, so massive that I don't know how anyone could let this slide. The ending wasn't too bad though.

James Caan and Vera Farmiga probably were the best things about this movie. Even with the somewhat uninteresting dialogue, they both kept it up and delivered.

Keeanu Reeves wasn't great or very effective in his role. Especially the part when he somehow was the next best choice for a lead role in a play when his character never acted before. He came off a little off and unconvincing.

But the biggest loophole as mentioned earlier was how Caan's character managed to get rid of the lead of that play. He was in prisoned most of his life and suddenly he seemed to have some sort of connection to pull the stunt off. It's mind boggling.

A heist movie usually is sexy and slick. This was neither. Ergo, not very exciting nor entertaining.
