More twenty years I watch almost every flick made by Renny Harlin, which perhaps will fine in this time when it always has for dislike. The Misfits of tired myself kind of films about honorable group of thieves doing their craft of heist in elegance of circus-masquerade, which hallmark is a standard team in correction to time. I put aside cons due to relay on director whose staging promised to be a non-linear.
Renny Harlin is a brilliant filmmaker in supremacy presenting story, which watch without strict eye to that it is impossible in our reality. As director said in interview, movie goes in his fiction world. No awkward things targeted to be jokes for cinema audience and other specialty for be a cinema fair. The Misfits has scenes as characters in multicolor suits and staying in one row for impressive shot when Harlin does film without platitude. He even joked on it at once. I like a staging of fighting scene in a hotel room in which can get feeling of known choreographic dance, but Harlin wasn’t ordinary here too. It could be a relaxation movie…
…while I getting nothing from the screenplay, which has needles of some actions by characters and authors who among them sharing in different rate of written Kurt Wimmer didn’t wish to elaborate details of heist (as the director didn’t want to hide United Emirates in a fiction state.). A plot has effect equal to sit and watch at pole for time as length of this film.
