Review of Focus 2015 Full Movie: It was weird for me that I wanted to watch Focus in theaters as I like the directors/writers, Will Smith, and newcomer Margot Robbie. It actually would've been something that my mom would wanna watch and like, but I didn't get the chance to see it in theaters as I probably forgot it and would probably wouldn't think much of it is I watched it. The man was I wrong as when Focus was on DVD, my sister wanted to watch it which we did, my sister really like it, and it turned to be one of the classiest movies I have seen in a long time.
Will Smith is still charismatic as ever which I'm glad that he's back to that after the failure After Earth. Margot Robbie is really great in this and she's definitely going places just like with The Wolf of Wall Street where she's great in that, and so is Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad. The two main characters' chemistry is great and when they play with each other, it always kept surprising me. The writing is fantastic, and the way they help Margot Robbie's character learn is very classy and downright hilarious at times.
People would say that the second half of the movie is not as excellent as the first half which I'll agree, but I enjoy the second half as it never took the film away from me. The characters are memorable, and h twists are effective too, even though there is one twist too many which ended up being a bit predictable for that twist. As is, Focus is a really great movie that is smarter than I expected, which is rare to see most days. "Focus" is an amusing rapid film that could be enjoyed by attentive people. A community that enjoys what is the manipulation of the eye will love this movie. Reading the cast and members of production you could tell this movie was leading up to be this type of film since the name Apollo Robbins appeared in the credits.
For those who may not know Apollo Robbins is a famous conjurer who considers himself as a specialist in deception and calls himself the white-gloved thief. Robbins is a talented being and he is skillful in several arts. Among his peers, he is widely considered to be the best in the world in what he does, which is to remove objects from other people, such as watches, wallets, mobiles or personal items, using a psychological method. The skills Nicky Spurgeon possesses are similar to what is in the field of knowledge of Apollo Robbins. Nicky is played by famous actor Will Smith who brings life to this manipulative, dedicated and brilliant criminal. He exceeds expectations as this mysterious easy to relate to the character. He first appears inside a scheme trying to be pulled on him by his later partner Jess Barret.
Jess Barret is played by known actress Margot Robbie. Margot Robbie plays a criminal in training who during the movie is in the process of character building, later in the movie her attitude can be appreciated. This duo of Margot and Will has good chemistry as we can see them collaborate in other famous movies such as a "Suicide Squad". In this particular movie their encounters are fulfilling and of much pleasure to the audience. Most times the feelings portrayed were easy to relate to. The emotion of the viewers, if they paid attention, were most of the times anxious and nervous. At times laughs are shared and jokes are said.
There is a comedic relief in this movie and his name is Farhad. Farhad is a very enjoyable character he makes many funny remarks throughout the film. Farhad plays the part of the con artists team. He is a computer genius who is very inappropriate when conversating. I loved Adrian Martinez as him, he has the perfect face for this uncommon and unsuitable words shown on screen. He helps with the planning of most of the jobs. Other supporting characters are shown in most scene Farhad is presented in.
Other characters who constantly appear are Garriga and Owens. They are played by Rodrigo Santoro and Gerald McRaney. They appear in a job where they both get bamboozled by the protagonist. Garriga a strict race car driver and Owens is his assistant. The stunt that's pulled on them is the biggest job yet. Garriga is this arrogant and uptight driver who hires Nicky for a job. They have their differences and get to entertaining disagreements. Rodrigo in this movie plays a very disliked role by the audience. He and Owens, his partner, are easy to hate. At the end of the movie many opinions could change, but I guess you have to watch the movie to find out.
One could never imagine the kind of money robbers make on a daily basis with simple tactics. The jobs in the movie are what make you want to keep seeing it. The level of creativity of this criminal is admirable and entertaining. This fun movie is of most enjoyment if watched from the begging. People that watch streamed movies on television often catch the movie in the middle, but this eye-catching gem is not easy to watch if not from the beginning. The movie is gold that deserves to be treated with respect.
The acts portrayed in this movie are done with such elegance it leads to uncanny reactions by some audience. Will and Margot fit this part very well and act the mischievous maneuvers like pros. You can appreciate the movie completely thanks to their acting, which one can notice took much training.
The movie is extremely interesting, it isn't an option to lose focus. Many manipulative acts take place and are shown in a fun way, they leave a spectator speechless. Few people in this world think, and even less have the audacity to act the way these characters do. It's enjoyable to even think a person could get away with this kind of behavior.
