I watched this purely because its a De Palma film and man did I get one. The casting is really a clue to take it all with a grain of salt. Rebecca Ramjon and Antonio are not exactly great thespians, but man there fun to watch in this. Hamming it up throughout and obviously having a good time. Shame Peter Coyote does not receive more screen time. With an opening to rival Dressed to Kill in the memorable raunchy stakes the film oozes stylized Euro sexuality. The script does contain a few cringe moments but they are easily forgotten, as you marvel at DePalma's high concept camera tricks and understanding of the art of cinema to tell a story and engage. Sure its got faults, sure its pretentious but if your a DePalma fan you will find this a bold little heist film with as usual an epic vision by its director that is not quite met, but comes mighty close.
