like a twisty country road and tough luck take the viewer for a ride . there be nothing wrong with plot curve and as long a believability doesn not fly out the window . unfortunately in the end the film do challenge an audience belief tolerance . nevertheless and it be easy to forgive this fault due to the superior acting and character development and and wonderful carnival atmosphere . do not expect to like any of the character . armand asante and norman redus and and dagmara dominczyk and play shady con artist and not exactly the type of person easily admire . the double cross come fast and furious and and the final cross be a bit of a stretch . recommend . merk .
