Thick As Thieves - Thick as Thieves review by CP Customer
Well, this is a movie that has you anticipating. Literally, even after it ends you still have the feeling that some moments have been left behind. Scenery is somewhat patched - shots from Bulgaria's Supreme Court building, airport and streets, mixed with NYC. Actors' play is at top notch, but there may be some elusive disappointment that the plot didn't develop characters fully, didn't end the way we want to end and so on. Primarily, a story about thieves thieving, some complicated lying, some sex, some features, some plot of grand thefts, and that's it. I actually didn't like this movie. Not because it is bad, but only because it wasted the actors' potential for playing the full extent of their roles.

Morgan is the man - Thick as Thieves review by CP Customer
A good movie but there again I really like Morgan freeman who for me is always in good movies. Well supported by Antonio Banderas the plot is simple but entertaining and does not need bad language to emphasise the points. You can just guess the ending but it is exciting waiting for it.
