First things first....this is one of the funniest that Eddie Murphy has managed to be in a long long time. Besides the Shrek movies, there was nothing else that was working for him...but this might just change it. And he should be sighing a relief, because he is in some good company , all right. With the rest of the cast including names like Ben Stiller, Casey Affleck, Broderick, Murphy can sit back and have a ball while he is at it.
Brett Ratner directs this comedy that pits Stiller and his gang doing an Ocean eleven on their employers. A comedy that is getting a positive buzz all around look all set to be a giant killer this November before the box office gets flooded with family flicks, right left and center.
When Wall Street titan Arthur Shaw (Alan Alda) is put under house arrest after being caught stealing two billion from his investors, a group of workers at his luxury Central Park condominium discover he lost all of their pensions in a Ponzi scheme. Now, they are out to take a revenge. Led by Josh Kovacs (Stiller) and with the help of petty crook Slide (Murphy), they plan a heist to reclaim what he took from them. Though amateurs, these rookie thieves know the building better than anyone. Turns out they've been casing the place for years, they just didn't know it.
