About
If you enjoy offbeat crime comedies with a romantic triangle, witty banter, and more character fun than action, this could click—especially if you liked Matchstick Men; Not for you if you want nonstop heists or big laughs throughout.
Pros: quirky, polite-robber premise; strong buddy chemistry; light, feel-good tone | Cons: uneven mix of genres; romance drags for some; pacing feels long
