Simply Perfect
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
