Are you Focused?

The new Will Smith movie,  "Focus" will do a number on you.  First the movie is about people who Con people: slight of hand, pick pockets, Con Men, etc.  The idea we are taught at the movie's start is: Focus.  Make people (the mark) focus on one thing so that the Con can do something else. Example: Cause a scene in a crowded lobby, everyone focuses on the event, the pick pockets work the crowd and relieve people of their possessions.   

In this movie Will Smith and Margo Robbie are the leads.  When they are on the scene, I like their marks, am so drawn to them that I am conned as well.  This is a slick, fun, tense, action movie with comedy, drama, and action.  The problem is deciding: WHAT IS THE TRUTH?

The weird thing about these movies is that you are fans of morally BAD people (That are easy on the eyes!).  That is what fiction does. Suspension of disbelief is one of the best vehicles of a good story.

In real life these people's lives would be nearer the people in "Breaking Bad."

As it was it is a good great popcorn movie. I give it  *** stars. 2015 movie #14

FYI: Rated R   

NEVER LOOSE FOCUS
