Reviews
Total Film - ...THE GOOD THIEF is exuberant, sexy, and ultimately life-affirming drama..., Chicago Sun-Times - ...[Nolte gives] one of those performances that flows unhindered from an actor's deepest instincts..., Rolling Stone - ...Nolte brings a raspy authority to the role, and director Neil Jordan surrounds him with colorful characters..., New York Times - ...It's a triumph of flourish, all weathered, movie-star-size gesture....The movie is the ultimate caper, a work of brazen ebullience..., USA Today - ...THE GOOD THIEF offers a couple of good benefits. One is the pleasing sight of Nick Nolte in fairly robust form....There's also an appealing turn by Tcheky Karyo...

Additional Information
Irish director Neil Jordan (THE CRYING GAME, MICHAEL COLLINS) and veteran actor Nick Nolte combine their talents for this breezy heist picture. Bob (Nolte) is a retired master thief and gambler living as an expatriot in France. His past robberies are the stuff of underworld legend, but he's given it all up, and fallen into a twilight life of heroin addiction and seedy gambling dens. Then a chance encounter with an attractive young runaway (Nutsa Kukhianidze) inspires him to clean up his act and take one last big job; an elaborate modern art heist at a swanky Riviera casino. Standing in his way is a cagey police inspector (Tcheky Karyo) who is determined to bring him down, even though the two are longtime friends.<BR>The twisty caper plotting compliments a fun cast (including Emir Kusturica and Gerard Darmon as two of Bob's brothers in crime), clever dialogue, stylish direction, and pretty Riviera scenery. Loosely modeled on Jean Pierre Melville's BOB LE FLAMBEUR, this is something of a pet project for Jordan and it's obvious he's invested himself into every detail of the production. The result is both elegant and warmly quirky. As for Nolte, he seems to be having a terrific time; the charming old rascal role fits him perfectly, and Kukhianidze proves his match with an aplomb beyond her years. Ralph Fiennes has a small role as a disreputable art dealer.

  • The Best Heist Film Ever

    Seriously. Screw The Italian Job. Screw The Great Train Robbery. Screw Oceans Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen whatever! Two things - texture and pace. Neil Jordan's The Good Thief is for me, by far, the best addition to a very weary genre, cliched by the usual immaculately-dressed hoodlums with unbelievably smooth lines and unbelievably advanced gadgets. While every heist movie tries to be cleverer than the previous one, along comes this delightful flick, which plays more on proper characterisation and execution instead of excessively charming characters like the George Clooneys and Brad Pitts of Oceans fame. Here we have amongst others, a down-and-out heroin addict, a Bosnian whore, her jealous small-time gangster lover, her possessive pimp and a sympathetic police officer. No character is the ...

  • THE GOOD THIEF

    I bought this DVD on ebay for 99p!! bargain! Bob (Nick Nolte) is an old time thief and drug addict who just has to do one more robbery...can he pull it off? With an array of 'mad' friends and great story line this film has it all. Teenage whore, pimp, policeman, gangster, transvestite such colourfull actors, an enjoyable film with a great plot. One to watch

  • The Good Thief

    Gravel-voiced Nick Nolte gives the performance of his career in this stylish, gripping thriller about a crook planning one last job before he retires: the theft of a collection of paintings owned by a Monte Carlo casino. He assembles a colourful gang, saves a teenage Russian girl from prostitution and goes ahead with the plan although he knows the police have their suspicions. The story, directed by Neil Jordan, has more twists than a corkscrew and is hugely entertaining.

  • The Good Thief DVD

    This is the heist thriller to end all heist thrillers - it is slick, smart, stylish and explosive with Nick Nolte playing the master thief -- a character that fits him like a glove -- and the film has an excellent supporting cast. All in all it is streets ahead of the average heist film
