Title: Don't play the game if you ain't gonna score...
Product review: ...in this case, as an entertaining film & story. This project misses the mark big time. I agree with others that wrote about the film having an unfinished feel to it. I'm a fan of DeNiro but he was definitely on lithium throughout production. Norton is the highlight, but doesn't [take]the show because there isn't one. You get the feeling you're watching the "dailies". Frank Oz should stick to light-hearted comedies.Elegant Angela Basset is wasted in the three measly unimportant scenes she's in (obviously a DeNiro cast choice since everyone knows he's always preferred black women).Two stars for both of Norton's characters. Basset should go back to finding her career groove, and if this is the type of character DeNiro is comfortable in playing, he is quickly joining Jack Nicholson in simply not trying anymore.It's pretty much a "[copy]" of the great Michael Mann film "Thief". I dare you to watch that and see the blatant comparisons.
