The Big Con
31 January 2020
The Big Con was that we would pay to watch this drivel. It is supposed to be fun/laid back with a type of crime mystery plot, it is neither that much fun nor that mysterious, just sort of sex jinks with a dodgy scam.

Apparently this is a remake of an earlier film, which was not that good itself, so you think they would have made it better, unfortunately not.

They had a good cast, Morgan Freeman, Owen Wilson, Charlie Sheen, Gary Sinise, with cameos from Harry Dean Stanton, Willie Nelson and Vinnie Jones, normally any film with this amount of talent would be great, but not this time.

The setting of Hawaii was good, but almost everything else was a let down, the actors seemed to be in Hawaii on holiday, they were not taking this film to seriously, neither the director nor the editor as both direction and editing stank, several scenes seemed to be missing, the plot could have been a good one, but it had too many holes and too many twists, it didn't work. The scenery was great and Sara Foster as the bikini clad beauty (amongst all the other beauties) was gorgeous, and that is about the best I can say about it, oh the Great character actor Harry Dean Stanton popped up in a cameo near the end, so I gave it a 2 for that.

Don't waste any money on this, if you want to see it, get it for free if you can.
