Some people were born to compose music. Others to split the atom. I was born to steal shit.

Thick as Thieves (2009)
Supplied by Victoria Charvill from a pile of DVDs she was getting rid off.


I always a little fascinated by films like this. That sort of slip through the cracks. Featuring some well known names but so utterly generic and forgettable.
Did they think this would be a big hit, was it designed to pad out those bulk dvd bundles you see to help shift crappy DVD players?
It kind of just sits there, going through the motions dully. Freeman is a consumate professional of course, not a hint of boredom comes from himself but even the film's bland title does little to excite.
