very politically astute for a heist film and very tragic for a comedy. i was quite amazed by what it turned into - this could not have been made post 9/11, especially since mark wahlberg’s character would have stopped 9/11

Shocked at how many times I almost cried during this movie! Especially shocked that Mark Wahlberg was the one that got me closest! I'll never forgive him for this. His greatest transgression. Everything I'd wanna say was said by this review!
I decided to move this up to a full five-star rating because there's really nothing I can think of that I don't love about it. It's not an absolutely perfect film, but in terms of fantastic performances, cinematography, score, editing, pacing and the perfect blend of action/comedy/drama; it's an exceptional one where no faults have any effect on my overall experience with it.
