About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a sexy, twist-heavy noir thriller with identity games, voyeurism, and a glossy Paris vibe; Not for you if you hate convoluted plots or feel cheated by bold narrative tricks like in The Score.
Pros: twisty noir thrills; seductive, stylish mood; strong opening heist | Cons: convoluted plot turns; uneven acting; divisive, cheat-like payoff
