A good movie

When I heard that Steven Soderbergh was going to release another movie only 4 years after announcing his retirement, I was both pleased but also rather annoyed. I mean, why didn't he just say that he was taking a break from directing instead ? Anyway, eventually, even though this movie did receive some solid reviews, it didn't make much waves at the box-office after all but I still wanted to check it out anyway. Well, all in all, even though it was nothing really groundbreaking, it was still pretty entertaining. Indeed, I always had a weak spot for the heist genre and this one turned out to be pretty neat. As usual, Soderbergh had a solid cast at his disposal and they obviously all had some fun with the material. Still, even though it was a decent story, it was nothing really amazing though. I mean, the main thing that bothered me, beside the fact that their plan was just so flawless and ran so smoothly, was how did Jimmy Logan come up with all this? Furthermore, they didn't really explain why he took all these risks. Maybe because life hadn't been kind so far with the Logans so they had to take their revenge somehow? Anyway, to conclude, even if it was no masterpiece whatsoever, I had a good time watching this movie and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre or if you are interested in Steven Soderbergh's work.
