When a group of hard working guys find out they’ve fallen victim to a wealthy business man’s Ponzi scheme, they conspire to rob his high-rise residence.
Tower Heist came across being a little darker in places then I thought it would be. Though after watching it I really did not think that it was a laugh out loud movie and I highly Brett Ratner’s ability as a comedy director. I have found that of the comedies starring Eddie Murphy I believe that one’s released since 1995 have been a little hit and miss. Tower heist seemed to come across as the bastard little brother of the Ocean’s trilogy. But, despite everything that Tower Heist had going against I just loved Gabourey Sidibe’s performance.
