Rating: B
Commentary: Conjuring up an image of the 1970’s, the style of film the movie seems to want to emulate, is a striking and suitable visualization of the film. 		Rating: B
Commentary: You don’t often find the likes of Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin together onscreen as old chums in a crime setting. The trailer plays commonly enough, but there’s the promise of a compelling exploration of aging in the world of crime.

Oscar Chances: Releasing in January means the studios doesn’t have much confidence in the film, so I wouldn’t expect much from it.
