I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
