The car thief Cosimo (Luis Guzmán) is arrested while stealing a car. Once in prison, he shares the cell with a prisoner sentenced to life for killing his wife. The guy shares with him the location of a safe full of money 'prepared' to be easily robbed. Cosimo asks his mate Rosalind (Patricia Clarkson) to find a scapegoat to assume the blame for his crime for US$ 15,000.00 and he shares the secret with her, asking for total secrecy with the information. Rosalind shares the scheme with a bunch of losers and brainless small time crooks, trying to find a person to trade place in jail with Cosimo. The execution of the robbery does not happen as planned due to the lack of skills and intelligence of the group of morons. Yesterday I watched this flick with the expectation of being a great movie. The cast, with names such as William H. Macy, Luis Guzmán, George Clooney, Patricia Clarkson and Sam Rockwell among others, promised a good movie. However, the whole story is practically based on one joke only, being boring in some parts, and I was very disappointed with the performance of such a cast. In the end, 'Welcome to Collinwood' is nothing more than a watchable and forgettable low budget movie. My vote is six.
