Steven Soderbergh's latest. Ed Solomon provided the script. Surprise, it's a heist. Michaela Coel led as someone once involved in the London art scene who now works in a Chinese food van. Ian McKellen has a couple of talentless kids who ask her to help with their inheritance. The first half chugs along mostly fine and sometimes fun but at some point the plot fell apart and we're left with a soggy ending. It all seems quite strange as the real estate (of unquestioned provenance) would surely be worth multiples of the artistic fix. The putdowns seemed irrelevant, crude and stale.
Peter Sobczynski. I don't think this thing says anything particularly new about the commodification of art.
