An aging thief hopes to retire and live off his ill-gotten wealth when a young kid convinces him into doing one last heist. Despite a cast of talented people such as Robert De Niro (The Godfather Part II, Casino), Edward Norton (The Incredible Hulk, American History X) and Marlon Brando (The Godfather, Superman: The Movie and Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut) The Score does too little to keep it's viewers interested and even the experienced actors like De Niro and Brando were just meh in their roles on the other hand Norton's perfomance was good when he was passing as a mental health patient but other than that? The movie was boring and dull from start to finish (4.0/10)

I didn't really have high hopes going into this but its actually very well done. Great characters and the plot is simple yeah, but its executed well enough to be entertaining. You really care about whether or not the heist will succeed or fail. It's different to most movies in this category so it wasn't boring or repetitive. 8 of of 10 stars.

Greetings from Lithuania.So after seeing "The Score" (2001) which includes no less then actors who portrayed and won Oscars for portraying "Don Vito Corleone" himself and two more Oscar nominees, i can say that i was entertained for the whole 1 h 55 min. The heist itself is good, nothing super original but as a movie plot devise it worked. The most unfortunate thing for me was that this movie kinda lacked any third act, because when the score finally ends and some double crossing do come up, it kinda ends there on the most predictable note. That said i do recommend to seeing this movie once on a boring evening - it does its job. But if you consider the fact that 3 "household" names that appears in leading roles and one very strong female, it is a bit disappointing as it does not deliver anything fresh or highly great.Overall, "The Score" is a well made and superbly paced heist thriller which doesn't bring anything new to the table, but it is worth seeing it once. Pretty good story well made.

The Score is about a hardened thief (DeNiro) who gets cajoled into doing 'one last job' by an up-and-coming criminal (Norton). That's about that. The plot isn't anything to sing about, but we watch it anyway because of the impressive casting (not to mention Marlon Brando as a mob boss).I found much of the first half pretty dull. It's all 'scene setting' and I was getting pretty bored. However, it all picks up the pace when they finally get round to pulling off the heist. The second half of the film is much better than the first. I know many people will say that the film needed the first half in order to build up character and get to know them, but, personally, I found that you could probably start watching the film about an hour in and still get everything out of it.The second half of the film makes it all worth watching. There's plenty of hiccups along the way of the heist and it definitely isn't all plain-sailing.If you enjoy the whole film - fair enough, but if (like me) you were tempted to turn it off, my advice is: don't - it definitely gets better!
