The Sting

One of the very best con movies. Really clever story and excellent acting with a great ending. Robert Redford and Paul Newman are really well cast as is the excellent Robert Shaw. You really feel like your in 30's america. The sets, old cars etc all add to the period feel. I'd say this is a must see film.

One of the greatest twists in a film, didn't see the end coming at all.
Glad i bought this one for my dads birthday, was definately worth it.

I have always been a big fan of Robert Redford. I grew up watching him as my mum is a huge fan. This is just a fantastic film that should be in everyone's DVD collection. Plus Robert and Paul are gorgeous in it.

Definitely a film that would be in my top 20 favourite films of all time (maybe even top 10). The film is about two talented con artists (Newman and Redford) teaming together to seek revenge on a mafia boss for killing a mutual friend. They do this by non violent means and attempt to con him out of all his money instead. Newman and Redford are both fantastic and is a welcome return to the two working together as they did in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
A great villian (Robert Shaw) as well, a great script with a really good feel to it and shot beautifully for that 1930's like feel, this is highly recommended
