Tower Heist

Because I'm trying to catch up to my regular amount of posts per month (PPMs), I need to do a couple of blogs today. And because I've been really lazy/playing Minecraft for the past week, I never got a chance to review the most recent sure-to-be-a-hit movie: Tower Heist. Not much to say here, it's just one of those 'How could they go wrong?' movies. It has Eddie Murphy. It has Ben Stiller. It has Alan Alda as the Madoff-esque billionare. And it has one of the funniest storylines in movies this year.

Spoiler time! We really get to hate the Alan Alda character, and in this one his only semi-likable personality turns decidedly unlikable. He ends up scamming all his employees out of millions of dollars untraceably-- or so it seems. While trying to steal the money back from Alda's penthouse, the employees find his record-keeping book in the glove compartment of Steve McQueen's Ferrari (it's complicated). So Alda goes to jail for a LOOONG time, and if he wasn't going behind bars for that, it would be for the finale of MASH.

So at the end, Tower Heist: 8/10 stars!

Bye!
