Roy è un baro da strapazzo che lavora in coppia con Frank. La loro società è fruttuosa: Roy è ricco e vive in una bella casa, asettica e ordinata. Roy ha però molti problemi: lasciato 14 anni prima dalla moglie incinta, oppresso dai sensi di colpa, è afflitto da agorafobia ed è devastato dai tic. Rischia di andare in pezzi quando arriva a cercarlo la figlia adolescente, Angela, che anziché scandalizzarsi, vuole imparare il suo mestiere.

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

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

    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.

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

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

    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.

    Drama and comedy mixed the way it should.

    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.

    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.
