Where do I start! This movie was incredible! The cinematography, the story, and especially the acting was amazing! The cast is awesome! Julianne Moore, Sebastian Stan, John Lithgow, Briana Middleton, and Justice Smith all delivered excellent performances! The story was well thought out and planned. It started off small, and expanded to different characters giving the film a bigger and bigger scope! And the finale ties it all together in such a subtle way. In this film, I'm constantly at the edge of my seat. This movie doesn't overdo the story, by bringing backgrounds on all characters about their intentions, why they do this or that. It's simple, but also complex, especially in terms of the twists! Well thought out film. If you're looking for a fun, thrilling, twisty, well acted film! This is for you!

'Sharper' is my kind of movie. But there's a reason we don't get many of them these days, which I'll get to shortly. It saddens me but I also completely understand it. Still, this movie was a lot of fun and is the kind of film I'm happy to accept will never be perfect. The problem with the con-artist genre was that the audience became too aware of every move in the playbook. I never call films predictable - and I detest it when people do, because a simple possibility running through your brain at some point in the run time and turning out to be correct does not make something predictable - however this is the kind of film where I can at least forgive that word being thrown around here and there. Which is ironic because these films were basically designed to be the least predictable of all the genres. They were designed to hit you with a dozen twists, each more shocking than the last. But soon audiences caught on that everything was the opposite of what it seemed and suddenly the films weren't as fun any more. So anyway, back to 'Sharper'. We see the film from each character's perspective in different segments. It's a really good format for a film like this. We are always getting new information, but we are also seeing information we thought we already knew from a different and altered point of view. It does a great job of keeping the audience invested and on their toes. The film has good dialogue, a good cast and great pacing. The two hours will fly by even though there is almost nothing in the way of action sequences. For a genre that some might consider DOA, I think 'Sharper' was a pretty good all around effort. 8/10.

Pretty average and extremely predictable and unrealistic ending. I guess the problem is the cons seems far too easy without any hitch, and then they gloat about it. And this gets repeated over and over, he con her (parole off), she cons him(guy at bar) they con him (billionaire), she con him (1st conner), and then she cons her (Julianne Moore) and then the end. All cons works seamlessly, just becomes same same and predictable. Theres no edge, no chemistry between the actors, bland, nobody gets hurt, just very mundane and boring especially when you can already predict the ending. So 3 stars out of 10 for me.

Well acted, shot and produced, has some nice twists, and the central idea isn't bad.. But it could've been better to me. They started it like a classic romcom and they shouldn't. Why would you make it similar to the dying, almost certain box-office bomb these days? Just to make it different? Just to have that twist? Make it interesting and engaging throughout the whole movie. Read the room. 60 minutes in and you don't know who to root for because none of the characters has any background, they are not caricatures but they have barely any motivation. And it doesn't end much better. Flat and unengaging.

"Sharper" is a movie that could have been great, but ultimately ends up being just average. The film has an interesting premise and a talented cast, but it doesn't quite live up to its potential. The performances in the movie are good, but not great. Julianne Moore is a talented actress and she brings a certain level of sophistication to the role of Harper, but the character ultimately feels a bit one-dimensional. Sebastian Stan also delivers a solid performance, but his character is underdeveloped and doesn't leave much of an impression. Overall, "Sharper" is a movie that has its moments, but doesn't quite come together in a way that is truly memorable. It's an average film that will likely be forgotten in the grand scheme of things. If you're a fan of the cast or the genre, it's worth checking out, but don't expect to be blown away.

I watch this as a big fan of Julianne Moore, and thought Ludlow being involved brought some decent acting to the film. The directing and look of the film is fine but the script is basically a B movie rip off with one of the most predictable scripts , that steals many con plots from other movies, and becomes a dull slow dull con thriller- imagine a bad rip off of Grifters/Catch me if you/Nikita but with so many fake grifter con artists that you start to just laugh at the absurdity of the script. It could have been a good script yet it is always amazing to see a good idea get turned into something that is far from smart or sharp - more like dumb and dumber where there is a million in one chance anyone believes the character and grifts /cons in this story. A few obvious spoilers - the fake Rolex and cop over paying - rather than just taking the watch and cash. Duh! The waste of time trading Sandy a la femme Nikita or Leon which Luc Bessin wants credit for The husband leaving everything to Madeline and she easily could just fly away and end of story. Or the worst part is the most trite twist ending of a fake shooting death but then she agrees to not just give the inheritance money back but sign it over to the Foundation - ha ha and then they put con artists on a cheap flight /plane to figure out they were conned. Nope - the screen writer conned whomever green lit this terrible project Was there really any reason to have Sandy on the same flight ? Ha ha It just gets worst and worst by the minute You know it's terrible writing when the Final twist con has to be explained at the end - as if it's going to make the horrendous script get validated for such a far fetched piece of predictable garbage. This film is not Ocean 11 or even remotely Sharp. 4 stars for Julianne Moore and actors.

This movie was a complete surprise. I'm glad I watched it because it was engaging and lead me into all these wonderful nooks and crannies inside the characters themselves. Great acting especially Julianne Moore whose character, if you looked closely, you can see her change into another person. Seamless! I enjoyed all the back stories and how they intertwined. Makes me think about how truly vulnerable us humans are and how we can be taken advantage of. In a weird way the grooming of one of the characters reminded me of Point of No Return with Bridgette Fonda. I enjoy movies about interesting characters and this movie fit the bill. Thumbs up!
