8/10

Awesome movie, the kind of comedy that mixes good, funny dialogs with action and totally outrageous twists and turns and actually gets away with it! It starts off as an Office Space kind of movie and suddenly it turns into this weird, tense roller-coaster ride. It's not packed with simple jokes, so you're not gonna laugh all the time, but when you do laugh, you laugh your a## off! And when you're not laughing you're busy enjoying the never ending complications that the main characters encounter. This movie is basically about a con that's gone bad, Way bad. And when you think that the situation can't get any worse, sure enough, it gets even stranger and funnier.

I simply loved this flick, it's a great break from typical mainstream comedies that either evolve around a wedding, a high school or Ben Stillers blank, expressionless face.
