Such a great crime-comedy directed by the legendary Russo brothers that did several of the Avengers/Marvel films! I wish I saw Welcome to Colinwood sooner, thanks to a wonderful friend for recommending it. A great cast: William H. Macy, Sam Rockwell, Michael Jeter R.I.P., Isaiah Washington, George Clooney, and Andy Davoli. This has some silly comedy and badass camera shots; solid fun time!

Petty thief Cosimo (Luis Guzmán) is thrown in jail and his cellmate tells him about the perfect heist. His girlfriend Rosalind (Patricia Clarkson) is desperate to get married. His partner Toto (Michael Jeter) tries to recruit somebody to take the jail term for pay. He approaches Basil (Andrew Davoli) but tells him about the heist. Basil approaches Leon (Isaiah Washington) but he tells him about the heist. The group approaches Riley (William H. Macy) but he needs to take care of his baby. They approach idiot boxer Pero (Sam Rockwell) but all he does is add 6 months to Cosimo's sentence. Cosimo tells Pero about the job but he's surprised to find out that Pero's sentence was suspended. The group tracks down Pero and does the job together. They recruit wheelchair bound safe cracker Jerzy (George Clooney) but he can only teach them. Pero has to con Carmela (Jennifer Esposito) out of her keys.

This is a screwball heist movie. The Russo brothers have filled this with wacky characters but the movie has limited laughs. This is often compared to Ocean's Eleven especially with Clooney. Of course, it's not the same thing. This is the incompetent F-team but there're not so incompetent to be hilarious. It takes too long to get to the heist despite being a shorter movie. Even the slapstick doesn't seem that funny.

The car thief Cosimo (Luis Guzmán) is arrested while stealing a car. Once in prison, he shares the cell with a prisoner sentenced to life for killing his wife. The guy shares with him the location of a safe full of money 'prepared' to be easily robbed. Cosimo asks his mate Rosalind (Patricia Clarkson) to find a scapegoat to assume the blame for his crime for US$ 15,000.00 and he shares the secret with her, asking for total secrecy with the information. Rosalind shares the scheme with a bunch of losers and brainless small time crooks, trying to find a person to trade place in jail with Cosimo. The execution of the robbery does not happen as planned due to the lack of skills and intelligence of the group of morons. Yesterday I watched this flick with the expectation of being a great movie. The cast, with names such as William H. Macy, Luis Guzmán, George Clooney, Patricia Clarkson and Sam Rockwell among others, promised a good movie. However, the whole story is practically based on one joke only, being boring in some parts, and I was very disappointed with the performance of such a cast. In the end, 'Welcome to Collinwood' is nothing more than a watchable and forgettable low budget movie. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): 'Tudo Por um Segredo' (' Everything For a Secret')
