Title: Forgive me this review
Review: Something just didn't sit right with me at the end of this movie. To be honest, I would have been happier had the twist at the end not been pulled.Even though Spacey delivers a bravura performance (more than worthy of his Oscar), the script itself seems to trip over its own feet at the end. Now, don't get me wrong, I found a lot of the plot quite entertaining, but pulling the rug out from under the viewer and wiping away 2 hours of movie in doing so doesn't instantly put me to my knees praising it.Also, it tries to be a little too stylish at points, making the protagonists of the story pull off these wild heists and stunts, yet never showing set-up, and giving them the ability to do this just because they're "really good" at what they do.But because it had an original idea, it was destined for classic status. I can live with that, but only because I don't agree.
