Star-packed crime caper

-

Oscar-winning veterans Robert De Niro (above), Tommy Lee Jones and Morgan Freeman head the cast of this crime comedy, and while it’s unlikely any of them will add to their haul of awards, the film is a whole lot of fun. The plot focuses on a pair of movie producers who, in an attempt to get the money they need to pay off their debt to the mob, try to rip off an ageing star via an insurance scam. As you can probably guess, the scheme doesn’t go to plan. Zach Braff, Emile Hirsch and Eddie Griffin are among the younger cast members, while the director and co-writer is George Gallo, who wrote De Niro’s 1988 hit Midnight Run. Sky/NOW, from Saturday
