An aging thief hopes to retire and live off his ill-gotten wealth when a young kid convinces him into doing one last heist.
What critics thought
A generally well-received heist thriller that critics appreciated for its old-fashioned patience and procedural craft, especially compared to the flashier genre entries of its era. De Niro, Norton, and Brando were the main draw, though some felt the film never quite lived up to the promise of that lineup — predictable from start to finish, surprise ending included.
“the best pure heist movie in recent years”
Roger Ebert·Chicago Sun-Times
“after sitting through such sloppy and reckless high-concept heist films as Mission: Impossible and Entrapment, it's refreshing to witness the careful, methodical attention to details that distinguishes The Score”
Steven Rosen·The Denver Post
“There's nothing you can't see coming in this flick, including the surprise ending. Quick, somebody get a phone book.”
