Flawless (2007)

flawless indeed, 18 gennaio 2008
Author: Josh Kaplan
Everything works in this movie : The direction, the acting, the shooting, the story and the script - one commentators claimed that it was limited and one dimensional but it is quite on the contrary : the script was written very elegantly with quite a lot of subtelties and these would probably be missed by those who are used the usual wham bahm great Hollywood films.
The only (small) flaw in the film was its so called "feministic" flavour, it was completely unnecessary - any, if all, "politically correct messages", would have been understood from the story itself - there was no need to shove it in the audience face.
All in all this movie is intelligent, interesting and exciting. I highly recommend it.

A Terrific Little Heist Movie, 3 ottobre 2007
Author: prayudhi da Jakarta
*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
I just watch this movie last night and let me say that I thought the movie was terrific. Since the movie hasn't even premiered in the US or Europe, I was hesitated because there were no reviews at all out there. But I'm glad to say that I enjoyed every minute of it.
The story is set in the 1960s, so don't expect the heist to be high-tech or complicated like the Ocean's series, Entrapment or The Italian Job. The real gem in the movie is the way it explains itself, all in good timing - it's nice to see a movie that still makes its viewers guessing.
Demi Moore and Michael Caine did a good job, and so is the supporting characters, played by Lambert Wilson and Joss Ackland. I am surprised however that Demi Moore can carried the whole movie, she was practically almost in every scene, and she proved that given the right material, she can make the viewers empathize with her. I certainly felt cheated, nervous and uneasy during the last half of the film, just like her character did.
If you appreciate a smart, subtle and entertaining movie, this is the movie for you. I highly recommend it!

Caine once Again shows his Talent, 19 gennaio 2008
Author: borncliche da ottawa
This is a well done film with Michael Caine and the not so young Demi Moore. Regardless of their ages, the depth of the characters puts together a timid plot to make an enjoyable film, with a feel good film/ story. Okay for a night to replace boredom with small laughing outbursts on the quirkiness of subtle underlying jokes. It is a slow movie to begin, and is so through out the rest of it, but it does it in such a way to continue the growing curiosity and find out the sum of the show from the small twists and plays of the storyline. It is mostly the lovable character (Caine) that keeps the viewer involved so deeply in the story, also his lost but not forgotten past. It leads to a cliché ending but still very acceptable in my view. And the actor whom plays Mr.Finch also plays the Merovingian from The Matrix. A small plus to see his acting career develop and hopefully become more mainstream.

stroke of absolute brilliance, 24 febbraio 2008
Author: cpp_hacker da Bangladesh
Probably THE BEST heist movies without all the cutting edge gadgets and eye-candy CGIs. Brilliant execution, this movie proves again that a heist movie can be pulled off only with a good story and plot and good acting as well as direction along with camera-work. When I started to watch this movie, the first thought that came to my mind was, here we go again another heist movie with a diabolical plan or to take revenge on the company that terminated you. But don't know why, still hanged on and thank god, I did. Otherwise I would have never known how old wine can be presented in new bottle while making it more better. Hey!!! what are you still doing reading this boring comment, shuuu!!, go!!! and watch the movie.

Well-done heist movie., 28 gennaio 2008
Author: panterken da Belgium
*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
'Flawless' is a relatively conventional heist movie that offers a little extra to the genre. Some nice little themes and motives are worked into the movie and the story doesn't flow according to the conventional heist movie-scheme (planning, executing, exiting and rejoicing or being caught in the end). The heist happens early on in the movie, which gives the director a lot of time to explore the motives behind the robbery. What bugged me was that a lot of time was spent on explaining the plot, which is quite a common feature in these kinds of crime movies. I feel those parts dragged a bit and should've been cut shorter.
Otherwise, the movie was quite good, Caine entertaining as always and Demi Moore in her only good post-comeback role so far (well, I liked Mr. Brooks but she was wrong for the part).
In the end, 'Flawless' entertains and leaves the viewer feeling satisfied since it offers everything a heist movie is required to offer and more. Certainly worth a look...
7.1/10

Michael Caine Stars In Excellent Crime Drama, 20 marzo 2008
Author: gulvezan da United States
I recall some woefully erroneous movie critic writing about Michael Caine in the late 1960s that Caine was the sort of actor whose career would have three brief stages: 1. Get me Michael Caine; 2. Get me a Michael Caine type; 3. Who is Michael Caine? Needless to say, that movie critic is now long gone and forgotten, while Michael Caine has simply gotten better and better, aging like fine wine. This is not a big "message" movie, or a huge budget extravaganza, but rather it is an extremely well-made and entertaining and suspenseful crime film with very human characters you can really care about. It is set in 1960 England, in which Caine, a janitor, attempts a spectacular robbery of precious jewels. With the able support of Demi Moore, in one of her best performances, and the fine direction of Michael Radford, and a wonderful attention to the little details that make a film so much better, FLAWLESS is very much worth the price of admission. And Mr. Caine, with his finely nuanced performance, a man who can make a glance or a subtle movement speak more than a ton of histrionics by lesser actors, is topping the bill. Need I say more?

Extremely fun and entertaining!, 12 marzo 2008
Author: georgia-23 da United States
Very clever and fun heist movie. Great character development leading up to the central hook of the movie, which kept me intrigued throughout. Michael Caine is absolutely brilliant, and Demi Moore is very believable as a frustrated executive who's been passed over for a promotion one too many times - this is her best role yet. The pacing is good and the director (Michael Radford) does a great job building tension through the climax of the film. I also love that the heist is actually believable, unlike so many films that try to be too slick and flashy. The time period (1960's London) is well captured and the musical score is great. This was a terrific film and I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed.

Demi Moore YES Demi Moore is great!, 25 marzo 2008
Author: bfitty da United States
This is a very well told original story. The characters are interesting and complex. It is a period piece and stays very accurate in costume and set design. That alone is fun to watch. The cinematography is spell bounding and helps sell the movie. This will be an academy winner.
Demi Moore is a real surprise in this movie. She acts her age and becomes the character. You forget it is her, which is the most you can ask from an actor. This is her best work. The attention to period detail in this movie makes it a living museum piece. It opens a whole world I knew nothing about in an inviting way. The Director really created a beautiful picture. Micheal Caine produces his usual performance.

Nice Retro Caper movie, 28 aprile 2008
Author: intelearts da the big screen
Flawless is a charming, tense, and nicely executed caper movie.
I had absolutely no idea how the robbery was done until the revelation: and, like most of us, I have watched enough heist movies to quickly go "Yup, got it!", more often than not, but not here.
Excellent understated performances from Demi Moore and Michael Caine, especially in the small facial gestures when stressed and so on. The settings etc; all add to a nice retro feel. You really get a sense that they tried hard to build the 1960s into this - very buttoned-down, very regimented, a very male world.
One of the major attractions for us was that the sense of pace builds slowly - and compared to the Bank Job I have to say this is the better movie.
All in all a clever, entertaining film, with a good script and very nice central performances, and even a human message.
Definitely recommended

(Nearly) Flawless, 6 aprile 2008
Author: Seamus2829 da United States
This little crime caper is a most welcome return to Demi Moore, who has been absent from the big screen for far too long (let's face it gang, what has she been in, of substance, since Ghost?). The film also features Michael Cain, always welcome,as a pre retired janitor working in London's diamond exchange in a time of political turmoil (South Africa ring a bell?). Cain & Moore,in their roles plot to heist a fortune in jewels, just to make a statement. What follows is a taut, razor's edge of a drama. Moore & Cain both play their characters to perfection. I guess if there's any flaw in this film is that how would a company,the size & stature of the London Diamond Exchange only have one janitor working for them? Apart from that, the film flies high.
