Masterminds

This is a comedy with a touch of authenticity. This was aided in no small measure by the fact that it was based on a true story. The Loomis Faro heist: The greatest second heist in the history of America. 

The main character in the story, David Ghaant - played to perfection by Zach Gaffianski - accent and all was so stupid it was adorable.

And of course the script writer would have been generous with the plot lines. It was done to such perfection, the viewer would choose to ignore them and enjoy the story. It is the equivalent of your friend telling you a hot story with embellishments but you choose to ignore them so as not to spoil the fun.

The supporting cast in Rachael Wiig, Owen Wilson, Jason Sudakis, etc surrounded the movie with outstanding role playing: Rachael- the woman who manipulated Zach but eventually regretted it, Owen –the “mastermind”, who was pulling all the strings in the background and Jason, the perfect assassin needed to tie up the whole plotline.


It was hilarious, detailed and definitely a must watch.
