Where do I begin.
Richard (Pierce Brosnan) and Kate (Emma Thompson) are a recently divorced couple, their future retirement is put in turmoil when Richrads investment company is defrauded and the pension fund syphoned away, they 'reunite' to hatch a plan to get back their money, though this does involve the theft of a multi-million dollar diamond, oh and kidnapping!
I wasn't expecting much, just a 'Hustle' style comedy, good cast I thought, but this is quite appaling and embarrassing for all concerned. The screenplay is excruciating, like something from the bygone age of Brit TV shows that went onto the big screen in the 1970's, Brosnan and Thompson do have good chemistry but the movie is just so implausible you'll be hoping for a face punch,let alone love, by the end of the movie.
