Roy Waller ist nicht nur ein Betrüger, sondern auch ein bemerkenswerter Phobiker und Zwangsneurotiker mit so vielen Ticks und Macken, wie er Haare auf dem Kopf hat. Während er seinen Psychiater auf Trab hält, plant er mit seinem smarten Kumpel Frank Mercer den ganz großen Coup, einen Betrug von beachtlichen Ausmaßen. Doch mitten in den Vorbereitungen steht plötzlich Angela in der Tür, Roys 14jährige Tochter und zieht bei ihm ein. Jetzt muß Roy Farbe bekennen und auch mal Vater sein. Das funktioniert natürlich nicht lange, bis die helle Angela erkennt, was ihr Vater so treibt. Und in beiseitigen Einvernehmen mischt der Teenager bei dem großen Schwindel schließlich mit...

    One of Nick Cage’s better movies and doesn’t get enough credit.

    Good movie. Great con, on the order of Ocean’s 11. Great cast.

    One of my Favorite Nick Cave films. Tho you kinda already know what’s going to happen halfway thru the relationship between the father and estranged daughter. Still it’s a decent watch. Plus I always love a good Ridley Scott film.

    The hustle and vibe push this one higher for me. Cage hones a neurotic character. Lohman is charming. Plus Rockwell throws some moves.

    Drama and comedy mixed the way it should.

    It might be because I’m a newer dad, but this movie was deeply affecting. I found myself cheesing and frowning through the ups and downs of the father/daughter dynamics. A really fair portrayal of OCD as well. I wish Alison Lohman would come out of retirement, because she is such a magnetic force on screen. Held her own with the legend Nic Cage. Ridley Scott, for all his action acumen is a phenomenal melodramatic storyteller. I highly recommend this film!

    A very intriguing show...all the way to the end.

    Ridley Scott is da man and Matchstick Men is da bomb!

    I love movies with a twist, and this was a good one. An older movie, but it has aged well. Great cast. Good storyline. Definitely worth watching. This is not a really family friendly movie though. This would probably make a good movie for a date night.

    Not just a con. It is heartbreak beyond compare. Fabulous performances while showing both the ruthlessness and gullibility of society.

    I saw a twist coming at the end, but the film continued to double down on it long after I was expecting a fold. The real con was probably the friends we made along the way, or something.
