This is a good movie!
This is a good movie!
Nuff said!
I kinda enjoyed it too. Surprised there are so many over the top negative reviews.

Agree.
It is much better in some respects to films like Smoking Aces (which I have heard is vaguely similar).

I was unlucky enough to have stumbled upon this movie, I thought it was the movie "Twentynine Palms" which received 4 1/2 out of 5 stars on filmcritic.com. This movie is not even close to being half as good as Smoking Aces...and it's not vaguely similar.
shareIT WAS FUN DOING THIS MOVIE. A LITTLE INSIDE SCOOP. ON THE LAST BUS SCENE, WE HAD TO RE TAKE IT A COUPLE OF TIMES AND THEN REALIZED THAT THERE WAS NO FILM IN THE CASE SO IT WASN'T RECORDED AND WE HAD TO RETAKE THE WHOLE THING AGAIN AND NOT ONLY THAT, ONE OF THE GUYS WAS INJURED WHILE PUSHING ON THE SIDE OF THE BUS TO GIVE IT THE ROCKING EFFECT OF THE ROAD. THOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE SOMETHING INTERESTING FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW ABOUT.
shareRented this movie on iTunes because of the name 29 Palms. My family used to live there. Was there for about 25 days myself in 1973, on leave from the Air Force. I don't believe 29 Palms was actually in the movie. Anyway...enough digressing.
I liked the movie! The first 20 minutes was kind of boring, disjointed and confusing, and I almost turned it off. I stuck with it and finally got into the movie--as all these fools kept running around trying to get this bag with a 'piddly amount' of money in it. At least it didn't appear to be a lot of money to me. Now--I can see people wasting one another for a large amount of cash (stacks of 100's), but for stacks of 20's??? Didn't seem realistic to me. LOL!
Rachel Leigh Cook looked good in that outfit. Kind of plain looking--but I love Rachel Leigh Cook wearing anything. I think she would look good in a burlap sack.
Rachel and Jeremy Davies were the highlight of the movie.
But anyway, I enjoyed the movie. I kept wondering what was going to happen next.
