Stealing is wrong
4 March 2020
That's just it. You should not steal. Unless you need to cause you are hungry and there are no jobs, or you mother is sick and there is no healthcare. Yet all the folks here seem to be pretty rich to begin with. It starts with the Sandra character being released from Prison and she starts stealing straight away. I guess this is supposed to be funny, cause she is on parole. And as the film is making a point that she is stealing from a posh store, I guess that should make it ok. But I don't know anything about the policy of said store, it being fictional and all, but in real life quite often the salesgirl on duty has to recompense for everything that get's stolen while she is handling the checkout, so stealing is still wrong. I would forgive all of that if it would make for an entertaining movie, but sadly enough, this is not the case. I guess this is suppose to be a comedy, but is not funny at all. Everything is so predictable and there is literally nothing that we haven't seen before one way or the other. There is a kinda twist at the end, but by then the viewer has stopped caring a long long time ago. After all, what does it matter to us if the criminals go home with two, or 16 million apiece.
