Title: Not as good as it should be
Product review: A movie starring Tom Hanks as a verbose con man, renting a room from a sweet Mississippi lady, and using it to tunnel underground to the counting room of a casino, should be funny. Unfortunately, this movie misses the mark and never becomes the comic force that it should be. Hanks does not inspire many chuckles for his portrayal of a silver-tongued crook and his henchmen are foul-mouthed, hugely sterotypical, and not particularly funny. The only thing that earns this movie any stars at all is the portrayal of the church-going landlady by Irma P. Hall and the gospel music in the background and the church scenes. This movie goes to show that just because it stars Tom Hanks, it's not necessarily a good movie.
