The Score, a competent if nothing-special heist thriller on paper, showcases three generations of acting giants.

...There's an undeniable pleasure in seeing De Niro taking to crime in earnest once more....And for Brandologists there's one more performance for the collection...

...A top-drawer heist movie that ratchets up the tension inch by careful inch....Engrossing...

While you'll telegraph its plot twist ten minutes before it actually happens, you'll be too wrapped up in the performances to care.

Restoring the seductive style of the no-nonsense procedural heist movie to complete luster, this is the kind of pic that knows the difference between being masculine and being macho.

Contains The Scene, a precious sequence already destined for infinite repetition.

Product Description:
Every thief dreams of the big heist that will allow him to leave the business of crime behind. Every thief except Nick (Robert De Niro), a cool, methodical safecracker who never takes on long-shot jobs until his longtime partner, Max (Marlon Brando), offers him the big score--to filch a priceless scepter from the Montreal customs house. Wary about the job, Nick and the hotheaded customs house "insider," Jackie (Edward Norton), begin to dissect the elaborate details of entering the building, avoiding the security measures, blowing the safe, and escaping with the scepter. But as in every thrilling crime caper, plans go awry.
Skilled comic director Frank Oz is clearly comfortable working with the best method actors from the past three generations. Brando's Max bursts with joyful cynicism, while De Niro is Brando's perfect foil, so collected that every smile seems like a revelation. Norton's Jackie is far more expressive, but it is Norton's smallest movements--holding a gaze a half beat too long--that hint at the secret motives pulsing beneath his skin. Smooth like the scotch Nick likes to drink, and swirling with tension, THE SCORE provides the real payoff to the audience.
