I guess we will never lose if we focus on things we do. Well, this was proven by Will Smith or Nicky in this movie. He is a con man, a thief. He operates day and night with his team, yes they have team there. Especially during the events, they really could grab lots of money.
One day, a very beautiful girl came, Margot Robbie or Jess, wish to join the team. Maybe she was born with criminal blood, since she's very talented in stealing things, she looks like very natural every time she do her "things". Jess and Nicky finally become a couple, and they were like perfect to each other.
These movie will show us, that criminal actions is about planning, organizing and do it accurately. Just like any other job, you need to plan it wisely, organize the people inside the project and do it accurately, and in the end the reward is yours. They hit the highest revenue that week, they manage to collect 1,2 million. The show is over, all their shares will be transferred and everybody should go outside the country for vacation. The big bag is loaded! Nicky only have to put it in a bank and transfer it.
In a football game, Nicky and Jess watched the game from the VIP seats. Feeling bored, since Jess doesn't understand the game, they gamble a little. About the people around them. This trigger someone to also join in the game, he was chinese, named Liyuen. I almost close my eyes in this scene, since they bet for 1 million USD for a ball is passed or throw out. It was just a ridiculous bet. Nicky kept on loosing, until the highest bet of 2 million USD for choosing one of the team. Liyuen could choose anyone, and he said that Jess could guess the number right. Could Jess guess it right for 2 Million USD?
Enough about the bet, the scene moves 3 years after the bet, where Jess and Nicky have separated. This time, the place is taken in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A rich man, Gariga played by Rodrigo Santoro, loved to race and he spend lots of money to win. To make sure he win the race, he hired Nicky to con his competitor, to sell them a fake formula. It should be a smooth con, only if Jess not showing up. I guess everybody has their own past, and when the past emerge everybody was shaking a bit.
This movie is full of surprises, the plot is unpredictable. The puzzles will be shown at the end. Maybe because this is about a con man, they managed to twist the story here and there, and it worked. The story is entertaining, full of surprises. One of the things that kind of bothered me is Will Smith's face that look kind of ugly, he looks less charming like he used to be. I haven't figured out the reason, but compared to Margot Robbie, its like they were in different level. Margot Robbie's act is also great, effortlessly beautiful, she's going straight to the A Class Actors with that kind of ability and beauty, a complete package.
I give this movie 3,5/5 stars for entertaining and the surprises. Make sure you watch the movie, and give me your comments or review! Happy Sunday!
