For one group of neer-do-well residents of Collinwood a chance
comes their way and they are desperate to grab it.
It has all come about from an in-prison conversation with
a lifer, who knows how to get his hands on a massive amount
of money that will see everyone on easy street.
Led by Pero (Sam Rockwell) a would-be boxing champion, the
gang consists of left-at-home dad Riley (William H Macy),
Leon (Isaiah Washington), Basil (Andrew Davoli) and Toto (Michael
Jeter).
The plan is to break into an empty flat that just so happens
to have a false wall through which they can get at the riches
within a jeweller's shop.
As you would expect, little goes right for these guys and
Welcome to Collinwood is a long list of things that shouldn't,
but do, go wrong.
It is also viciously funny. There are moments where you
will be laughing out loud only to almost choke as something
even funnier comes along.
The cast plays the movie perfectly and watch for George
Clooney as the expert safe cracker.
Conclusion: 85% Extras: 20%.
