Call me a goody-goody, but I have a hard time liking a movie (or a story) in which dishonest people - right from the start - are made out to be the "good guys."
The main couple in this film - "Tina and Jake," played by Andie MacDowell and John Malkovich, respectively - are a couple of cheats, liars and bankrupt people when it comes to ethics. We are supposed to root for these people, and "laugh" along with them?
Later we have to hear them squabbling all the time when their con goes awry. No thanks.
What a sick message and a poor excuse for entertainment.
