This movie grows on you from the very beginning. The characters are all a bunch of likable losers. The dialouge is hilarious. Too bad more people haven't seen this film. I chuckle out loud every time the movie's on cable. Check... Full review

Predictible slapstick film, with lots of laughs.

The plot is tired and predictible, but there are still a lot of laughs. Clooney has a very small part as a wheelchair bound ex safe cracker. He is the funniest charactor in the movie, but I expected that from him,... Full review

And while the slightly wobbly Welcome To Collinwood doesn't exactly nail it, it does showcase reams of obvious promise.....the film ultimately falls a little flat.....The Russo Brothers seem more interested in making their characters odd than engaging.... ... Full Review

Hollywood Report Card

One of the scripts amusing quirks is to assign a few nicknames; hence a perfect heist is a Bellini. and soon Rosalind has assembled a bunch of small-time crooks including rubbish Serbian boxer Pero (Sam Rockwell, the films nominal lead), single father Riley (William H. Macey, literally left holding the baby), old geezer Toto (Michael Jeter) and dandy Leon (Isiah Washington). ... Full Review
