Movie Reviews of Confidence
Movie Review: A terrific consemble!
Summary: 4 Stars
A delightful, stylish movie featuring an ace ensemble pulling a twisty caper. Confidence makes the Ocean movies feel utterly self-conscious: "Look at us! Huge stars being cool!" It's amazing that Edward Burns carries this film as well as he does, and he does. The supporting cast is simple brilliant; kudos to the casting director. Dustin Hoffman is just wonderfully edgy: brutal here, sensual there, with a comic undercurrent throughout. Sensational. Andy Garcia, barely recognizable in a 5 day growth of beard, shades and a cigar, manages to deliver the Garcia goods so you see it's him even though you can't tell it's him at first. Rachel Weisz manages to play it unaffected for a change. It's nice to see her being directed out of her "Aren't I precious" mannerisms. Production design is always colorful and the editing lively. The music is really nicely done. Foley scrambles a variety of genre elements into an eminently watchable picture.Movie Review: This Movie Rocks!

Speaking as a lady who loves " heist " and " con man " films, this is now on the top of my list. I've passed this DVD up tons of times in stores but tonight I saw the film on Cinemax and instantly fell in love with it. It has all the elements needed for a good thief/con man movie: the handsome, cocky con man, the beautiful sidekick, corny criminals, funny crooked cops, and a talented veteran actor like Dustin Hoffman. Though Hoffman's part is more like a cameo, he makes his mark and sets the tone for the entire movie. I am not going to go into long details since other reviewers were kind enough to give more information.Just know that I fully recommend this movie! If you like films like Heat, City of Industry, The Heist, Safe Men and The Score, well Confidence is something you cannot pass up. I'm buying the DVD and you definitely should too.
Movie Review: Great Movie. But...
Summary: 4 Stars
I am a great fan of these slick, hip movies..The movie is great. The acting is up there with the rest.
Rachel Weisz is very talented and Paul Giamatti is becoming a real true Actor. Dustin Hoffman, Ed Burns and Andy Garcia are as good as the usually are. The Music is fun and has smart as the movie is. I think it is great that they used european groups such has FC Kahuna. The Plot is intressting, and the narration also.
But to me this movie could have been AMAZING but it wasn't it was great.
Something is missing maybe some lack of complex or an end wich was a bit exagerated (it's a very good end but a bit too much), clearly something is missing.
I recommend this movie and all the other James Foley's . .
Movie Review: Stunning script with some peaks and lows!
Summary: 4 Stars
James Foley has made a very interesting film around the well known bunch of sympathetic and high level ruffians who play hard for the money, product of a request of a major gangster.
Admirable and frenetic camera handle in the first third part of the film, acts a boomerang against the script because it permeates the drama 's intensity. Edward Burns was OK, but I think this character was perfect to Gary Oldman.
Rachel Weisz as the femme fatale is wondrous; and Hoffman pitifully does not convince at all in this role.
Movie Review: Not bad at all...
Summary: 4 Stars
I really enjoyed this movie. It's a good popcorn movie. My only complaint is there's too much cursing. My friends and I don't go around saying "F" this and "F" that. But I suppose the director thought it would make it more realistic to have all the curse words in it. To me, it shows ignorance for a group of characters that are supposed to be very smart. Overall...good movie, great story to kill a little time by.
