Most helpful review Rip Off

  • Very, very poor ! Avoid !

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By Jonathan Hughes from Kent, England , 29 May 2006

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    What could have been a decent thriller was one of the worst films Ive seen in a long time !

    Its confusing, its dull and you get no back story on the characters so its impossible to care about who they are, why they are the way they are and how they got to be where they are.

    Just please avoid it !! Dont waste your time and get something better !

  • Average movie

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By Tony Fenton from Birmingham, England , 16 Oct 2006
    It's a shame that Alyson Hannigan can't get better roles than this. She tries to make the most of the role but the average storyline fails to let her shine.

    Story of 3 girls who get fed up of their low-life boyfriends and decide to take on the casino heist that their boyfriends were planning.

    Fairly empty and ultimately unfulfilling.

  • Awful

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By apfk (4 reviews) from Weston-Super-Mare , 06 Oct 2006
    What a complete waste of some talented actors! The dialogue is awful and frankly unbelievable. The sound and filming technique is at best amateur, was this made on a camcorder??!!

    The plot kinda ok, but the sets looked like they had to get permission to film is old abandoned buildings, not exactly top Hollywood glam that you might expect from the likes of Henstridge or Hannigan, they must have been doing some producer a huge favour or succumbed to blackmail to have taken part in this movie, my advice… don’t bother! I have only given this 1 star because I cannot give it a lower rating.

  • Fun Crime Caper?

    Rated - 2.0 stars  
    By Wolfbaine from Kent , 26 Feb 2006
    Normaly I'm not a fan of the crime caper movie, Basicly because the original Ittalian Job was so brillient few films can mesure up. Rip Off comes delghtfully close to proving me wrong. the acting was adaquet to the piece and the plot moved along a a pace that kept this review glued to his seat, just as well with all the twists and turns that the story took us through. in truth i feel this film was let down by being shorter than it needed to be. an extra half hour would have allowed room for the plot to evolve ratyher than being forced as it seemed to be at times. apart from that minor point this was a very watchable film, although still not as good a the Original Ittalian Job.

  • Wast of time

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By a customer from West Sussex , 17 Feb 2006
    What more can i say, After watching 30 mins of this film i found it hard not to turn it off. The story goes nowhere fast and the next thing you know (If you havent fallen asleep by now) Its over. IF you are expecting a fast action packed movie leave this well alone.
