No art.

The Art of the Steal (2013)

Written and directed by Jonathan Sobol this film stars Kurt Russell, Jay Baruchel, Matt Dillon and Terence Stamp. After spending seven years in prison thanks to his half brother selling him out a man seeks revenge with the theft of a rare book.

Stuck between being a comedy, a slick heist film and a Tarantino rip off this film ends up being none of those and is a real waste of all the talent involved. The script is limp to say the least and does not offer much in the way of entertainment. Given there are some pretty good actors involved the most puzzling thing is what drew them all to this project and I have no answers here.
