When a group of hard working guys find out they’ve fallen victim to a wealthy business man’s Ponzi scheme, they conspire to rob his high-rise residence.

This turned out to be even better then I expected, and it is something that a lot of people can relate to. With the financial crisis taking place around the world a lot of investment companies and financial individuals were discovered to be complex Ponzi schemes so this movie hits an interesting spot. In this case Alan Alda was that business man, I still know him as Captain Peirce from M*A*S*H, and Ben Stiller worked in his hotel and he asked to have the retirement fund of all the staff to be invested by him which disappears. Eddie Murphy is back, and he was hilarious in the movie, now this is the Eddie Murphy Raw! The real actor from the 80s, not the toned down family movie guy for the past two decades. The movie is entertainment on constant pace, with a lot of interesting characters, and never gets boring with a few interesting surprises. If you haven’t seen the movie then you should.
