The Big Bounce (2004) 6/10

Starring : Owen Wilson, Sara Foster, Morgan Freeman, Gary Sinise, Charlie Sheen
Director : George Armitage
Running Time : 86 mins

Jack Ryan (Wilson) is a small time crook who is convinced to take part in a robbery by Nancy Hayes (Foster), girlfriend of rich hotel owner Ray Ritchie (Sinise), but the crime is not as straight forward as it first seems when he realises that everyone involved in the situation is trying to double-cross everyone else.

This movie was okay, but considering the cast, mainly Morgan Freeman and Owen Wilson, I expected something a little better. The plotline was confusing, as would be expected of something conceived by Elmore Leonard, but thankfully there were some saving graces, mainly in the form of Sara Foster.
