The movie starts off with a light hearted oddball premise that a team of grifters will persuade a grieving father that he is meeting God. But it soon degenerated into a snore fest as the female protagonist realises being a grifter is a bit pants and grows a conscience. There isn't really a proper grift either. The team just want to get into the "mark's" house so they can empty his safe. So a robbery not a grift. Michael McKean does his best as the old timer playing the eponymous character but the rest of the never seen or heard of cast would do well to work in TV commercials for hemorrhoid ointment.
