A great movie with an interesting and above all original story. Three security elderly security guards in a museum have their favorite paintings that they got so attached to that they cannot imagine life without them. When the museum decides to move the exhibit to Denmark they must take things into their own hands and do whatever it takes to stay with the pictures. Combining the classical heist plot with some unusual perpetrators this movie is very down to earth and yet still a bit abstract. Great picks for the lead roles marked the troubled production and release of the flick. It is an easy going comedy that is missing maybe a bit more of the comedy influence. Oh yeah, I did not know that William H. Macy looks that good, he seems to be working out a lot. Enjoy…

Rating:  

Fun Stuff: The ladies playing the museum visitors were not told that Christopher Walken was going to interrupt the docent’s explanation of “The Lonely Maiden”. Therefore, their reactions to Roger’s expertise were genuine.
