     When it comes to cop films, for the most part, I tend to be a huge fan. When this came out, I was not very sure what to expect from it because there was such little press for it.     A professional group of thieves lead by Michael Atwood (Chiwetel Ejiofor) does the biding of Irina Vlaslov ( Kate Winslet). The guys want out of her buiding, but her being a big player in the Russian mafia, she gets what she wants. She drags the crew into a final heist with a huge payoff, what could possibly go wrong?        The biggest thing that hurt this film was the scope was so huge for this film with how many characters it has.

The editing is fast to try and cause discomfort. The cinematography has a lot of medium and close ups to show the emotion and destruction of it all.

      Happy Easter to all !!! As I have done in the past, every holiday I like to take a look at a favorite of the current holidays films. This time around, the 1979 comedy "Life of Brian".      Monty Python started out as a sketch show in 1969 that ran for four seasons. The success of this show go them their first feature, "Monty Python and the Holy Grail." It was a critical and financial hit. It was produced for 175 thousand pounds and made 7.7 million world wide. A follow up was all but guaranteed. In 1979 we got,  "The Life of Brian."   The story revolves around   Brian, who happened to born one stable down and on  same night as Jesus.  Brian becomes intrigued by a young rebel, Judith. To try to impress her, Brian joins the  movement against the Roman Empire. While running from the Romans, he recites some o f the teachings he heard from Jesus. This ends up getting the  crowd to believe he is the Messiah....
