Nicolas Cage, Sam Rockwell and Alison Lohman are the protagonists of this story of white-collar thieves. Ridley Scott, director such well-known films as Hannibal (2001), Gladiator (2000), Thelma & Louise (1991), Blade Runner (1982) and Alien (1979), presents a subtly bitter comedy, Matchstick Men�-Los impostores- recalling past classics. A master crook, full of phobias, gives masterful classes to an amateur thief until the unexpected arrival of an adolescent daughter shatters his plans. Avoiding easy sentimentalism, the script delivers action and entertainment. ISABELLE BOIX
