Here we have a Canadian heist movie, with famous Canadian actors, father and son Sutherland, blended with a artistic touch from a female director Risa Bramon Garcia. 

"What happens the thief protagonist happens to be a talented artist soon to be discovered?" is the starting point of this heist movie.

There is not much to say. I have seen it twice. The only things I remember about it that it is  a simple, smooth movie, which has moments tends to wander around the genres such as comedy, crime movie and romantic comedy. 

It was interesting to see Donald Sutherland together with his less known son Rossif.
