Gambit (2012) - GOOD MOVIE
I have not
seen the original, so I am unable to compare it, but, with no doubt, I
can still give you the truth. This movie is about an art curator who decides to seek revenge on his
horrible boss by tricking him to buy a fake Monet painting.
"Gambit" is a delightful lighthearted comedy about a heist that
deviates from the plan. The original plan that Harry had was displayed
in the beginning ten minutes of the film, then the rest of the run time
is about how things do not go according to plan. Actually everything
goes wrong and the situation becomes so hilarious. Colin Firth is great
as a frustrated and disgruntled art curator, while Cameron Diaz is
charming with her distinctive accent. She makes her character so
interesting, her mischievous simplicity is a sharp contrast to how she
gets things done in a well controlled manner. The ending twists are
well executed, making it a truly Coen script. I find "Gambit" funny and
entertaining.
