Welcome to Collinwood

The strong cast and plot aren't enough to cement Welclome to Collinwood into the annals of cinema history, but it is an entertaining way to spend a wet afternoon.

With a crackerjack cast (ideally suited for a crime caper), and the Russos behind the camera, it’s strange how tedious and interminable this ends up being; more the stodgy speed of Sinatra’s OCEAN’S ELEVEN than Soderbergh’s, this unwinds at half speed and never gains a pulse, even as Rockwell frantically mugs; the rest of the cast run the gamut from bland (Macy) to completely wasted (sadly Clarkson). Not even Clooney can add much here in a role that seems to be all about the wheelchair?

This movie presents us many talented actors and a funny script. Even if this movie feels like mediocre crime comedy, its still worth for other viewing. And after second viewing, i liked this film even more.

Even though it's a very faithful remake of Monicelli's classic heist comedy I Soliti Ignoti, this version lacks the original's effortless charm, brilliant acting and genuine undercurrent of pathos. It's decent though, and Clooney's cameo as a wheelchair-bound safecracker is memorable.

Good fun.....in parts.Feeds off ìt's quirky characters but doesn't take you anywhere particularly memorable

Not bad as a remake of an old and foreign story. Some allowances are made (for example, there's no such thing as a general amnesty in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave), and I think they do well. At the very end, it seems a bit too forced, too message-y, though. Oh, and Jennifer Esposito is very easy on the eyes.

#00s(e)#, story, (casting)

Some characters are just dumb, other are dumb but endearing.

It was alright as a pastiche of styles and eras, and I like how they never really got anywhere, but something still felt lacking.

Good film.

Not bad. Somewhat of a slapstick, maybe too much for me.

small but funny film
