Tower Heist
★★
Director: Brett Ratner
Year: 2011
I was in the mood for a really stupid, mainstream film. And this definitely fits the bill. Ben Stiller was pretty decent in it and it definitely entertains, as only a Brett Ratner film would. And it has that white guy/black guy combo that Ratner overdoes. And the actual heist was pretty good. Granted, it was no Rififi, nor The Italian Job, but it does entertain. I suppose the funny thing always is watching a film set in New York and I just despise the Trump International Tower so much. I wonder what residents of that building think about themselves now.
I will say that Matthew Broderick was pretty funny. I liked his character.
