I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Literally the worst movie I've ever seen. Godawful.

first, for be more than a simple remake. the second, for Cameron Diaz who gives more than the well known recipe of romantic comedies. and, sure, for Colin Firth, remembering Michael Caine in the version of 1966, but using his admirable art for a comedy preserving the flavor of classic films from "60- "70 decades. this is the secret for this admirable mix of irony and adventure.

Funny Movie that is Actually Funny; not because it was decided for us.Story, Acting, Directing, Editing, Settings, Audio, and etc... seamless ; as well as Excellent.What I liked was instead of the shotgun approach and clumsy attempts at making us laugh; Gambit was a comedy that didn't need to tell us what it was. You are allowed to be drawn into situations as they progress, drop your defenses for the typical comedy movie assault by Hollywood and just enjoy the movie.The main character has the preconceived notion of how this plan will work, then there's the real situations, and finally; all is well that ends well.Excellent movie that you will enjoy.

(36%) An enormously average crime caper from the hands of people who we know can do much better. The cast was there, so were the writers, and the director isn't exactly a first timer. So what went wrong? First of all all the characters are HUGE stereotypes, and I do know that this is based around a film from an era in which that type of attitude was common and largely excepted, but this couldn't pigeon-hole its cast list even if it tried. Which I thick it probably did. Cameron Diaz plays essentially Daisy Duke crossed with Toy story's Jessie because she's from Texas where everyone wears a Stetson and eats T.bones all day while firing a pistol in the air. Colin Firth (best aspect of the film) and Alan Rickman on the other hand are as English as a rain soaked summer bank holiday. While the least said about the Japanese characters the better. This really isn't "Lay the favourite" bad, but you'd need to be very easily pleased to get anything from this.
