The Brothers Bloom

Following the twists and turns of a con game can sometimes be difficult. Especially if you're looking for slip-ups and errors. But what happens when the con goes both ways and the best of inside men are left on the outside? That's what you should expect from The Brothers Bloom, Rian Johnson's followup to Brick.
Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo are said brothers; con-men who were once con-boys, who began their trade at an early age to distance themselves away from the status quo they often encountered from town to town. Only it seems that Bloom, (Brody) was never happy. He sulks and broods, wishing that for once it was real and not the written con they go through again and again. Tagging along since God knows when, their explosive expert, Bang Bang, (Rinko Kikuchi, given just a hair more dialogue than her role in Babel.). They settle for one last con and target Rachel Weisz, an heiress who collects hobbies. The con begins.
Now to spill every bean this can holds would be too lengthy for any one's interest. Instead, I will just simply state that everyone gets what it is that they want, which is the Brothers Bloom perfect con. Their game may not be the best played and falls short of any predictable con film but the ride is definitely worth it. The word play is fantastic, the locations wonderful, the humor is spot on and quick, and the fashion is in great taste. It may taste at times of Wes Anderson but the flavor is its own.
