The biggest drawback of the film was simple: many of the characters in this film are hyper-exaggerated to the point where you can't take them seriously.

For example, Brendan Fraser, despite being a Hollywood icon with some seriously wonderful films under his belt, was maddening in this. His character had a cartoonish, over-the-top, somewhat childish behavior scheme that just wasn't believable.

I blame this misstep on the man setting the film's tone, director Max Barbakow. This was a massive step backwards from his most recent film "Palm Springs" which was quite enjoyable.

The relationship between Brolin and Dinklage, our titular "brothers," felt forced and, at times, dull throughout the film. Their arguments felt scripted, which is the exact opposite of what you want to feel in a film. I was never invested in their familial development because the writing never evoked those feelings with the audience. In short, the lackluster writing was only exacerbated by the sluggish on-screen chemistry.

It might be worth the watch if you've run through the many streaming catalogs available but shouldn't be at the top of your to-do list.

4/10.

There's a lot of pretty scathing reviews here. I read some before I started this and set my sights appropriately low. Maybe that's why I kinda liked it?

There was a lot of what people complained about - inconsistent tone, crass humor, slapstick scenes, overly stupid characters doing stupid things, predictable outcome.

Yes, all of the above.

I still laughed at a lot of it. Probably because the main actors played their parts to perfection. No matter the reason, if you laugh and enjoy something, go with it and don't think about why you liked it.

This is one of those movies. Don't overanalyze it. Don't worry about what others think. Just go with the ride.

It's an amusing heist film and has a great cast. I don't get all the hate posted here. Yes, I've seen better movies, but I've surely seen a lot worse movies. It's a fun romp. It's pretty much what it appears to be and nothing more. It won't win Oscars, but not every movie is meant to win Oscars. It's a fun little popcorn flick. The chemistry is good between the actors. It's interesting seeing some of the actors play against type. If you want to spend an afternoon relaxing with a fun movie that has some really good actors. This movie may be for you. I really don't see a reason to write a book here, but the App keeps insisting this needs to be longer. I really don't want to post spoilers.

With a kind of stacked cast people might've expected a lot more from this movie. I don't believe they thought they made a masterpiece, moreso just a fun loving action comedy. If you aren't judging as a critic and just as a general viewing experience I feel like it was definitely above average these days. Parts were cheesy and crude but in almost an early 2000s feel. I found it to be an easy watch and enjoyed the performances of the actors involved. I can understand the disappointment some people may have with this movie. Some parts are a bit formulaic. I definitely think it's not meant to be art(film) but just a movie(entertainment). Which is perfectly okay, because as much as people want great films there's many people who just want to sit down and watch an entertaining movie.

So many issues with this movie. Was everyone in this just bored and couldn't get another job, so they lowered themselves to do this? Every one of the actors in this movie are legendary in their own right, but this movie? They just proved that no matter how good of an actor you are, a bad script, bad directing, and low budget can cause great actors to be bad actors.

This movie was almost cartoonish and presented itself as if a child wrote it.

I'm all for silly and mindless comedies ... if they're funny. This movie was not funny. It was definitely mindless and barely cut the mustard at being silly. It was more absurd and overly exaggerated than anything else.
