The Art of the Steal (2013)

"Derivative heist thriller-comedy that passes painlessly enough at a brisk 90 minutes."

"In the end, alas, it's the viewer who will leave feeling conned."

"Made up of plundered parts from the Oceans series and The Usual Suspects, and-like several of the forged tomes that figure in the plot-it's a pale imitation."

"Fairly amusing heist film with some sibling tension helping the story along."

"An entertaining lark."

"It's fairly transparent to anyone who's seen more than a couple of con-man pictures. Indeed, the plot is so perfunctory and shrug-worthy that it seems to function primarily as an excuse to let the cast riff."

"Satisfies both our vicarious greed and the desire some viewers will have to see a priceless work of art wind up in the hands of someone who couldn't care less about its price."

"Conventional to an almost eye-watering degree, this could have used a little more effort to subvert the genre - and a little more Terence Stamp."
