the real surprise of this effortlessly lightweight movie be how such a top notch cast get assemble for what be nothing more than a hammy uninspiring affair . presumably it be a proverbial snowball roll down a hill gather pace and size and shape . one can imagine that by the time miranda richardson get contact by her agent and the conversation go along the line of represent do you want to shoot a movie in dublin script by neil jordan . michael caine and michael gambon be already in . this be a dull comedy that see michael caine and dylan moran try and pull off a well plan hustle where moran must imitate a london gangland bos ( whose arrival be imminent ) to collect a sizeable sum of cash from local kingpin michael gambon . the rest be simply a forgettable romp that be thankfully over quite quickly . moran be mildly amusing in place but on this evidence be well suit to life on the small screen in hit comedy such a black book . caine be unchallenged in his role and give a steady performance without be overstretch . one can only imagine what make him sign up for this movie it can not even have be a summer in dublin give that many of the scene look positively autumnal in the background . gambon actually steal the show and and anyone who have catch some of his performance in the like of have i get news for you will know that he be a wonderfully funny man . but overall the result be disappointing and and it seem a lifetime ago that neil jordan be make quality movie of the like of mona lisa .
