Curtin, Lange, St James, Coleman, Benjamin, a lot of star power in this, all of them in the prime of their careers. Why did this film give them such a poor script with so little to do?
Given the talented actresses, all of them gifted comedians, why is this film so unfunny? Why does every joke fall flat? Why are the jokes actually so few and far between?
And why is it so slow? Why. For a film about women, does it resort to sexist jokes about women, with stereotyped reasons for problems with the heist?
It fails as a comedy. As a heist film, it's a little bit better. You'd be better served fast forwarding past most of the first hour and just watching the heist. That, and the strip tease by Curtin or her double, are the only things worthwhile in the film.
