WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
ruuk I just saw this piece on Czech TV. Although it was somewhat spoiled by translation, it caught my attention from the beginning till the finale. The cooperation of editing and screenplay is very good, it made me feel like watching some James Bond movies ... except this one was based on art, of course. I also loved the pace of this pleasantly surprising film, it flew with no significant faults. There are many films on TV in our country and majority of them are pure crap. Especially when you see them on midnight hour. This one was really pleasant and I am glad I spent my time with it.7/10 Really watchable !
sveknu This is a typical B-thriller that airs on a Friday night. Because of that, my expectations for the movie weren't exactly huge. But I really felt enjoyed when watching this, it was in fact quite exciting. The story about a an art forger who fakes a Rembrandt picture is a quite good one, and was a relieving difference from most other B-thrillers. Although I doubt that the way he fakes the painting is possible in real life, it was very well made for this film. Remember, it's only a movie. The acting is mediocre. Not good, but not bad either. That doesn't matter much here, because it's the story that makes this a pretty good movie. The film takes place in Europe, something I liked for a change.
Chris Severn I only say that because it's true. I have seen literally thousands of movies, this is the best one i have ever seen. i recommend this to anyone who asks me what my favorite movie is, and they all come back and ask me where they can buy it. this movie takes drama, thrills, and even art to a completely new level. i cannot believe this movie hasn't won the most awards in the history of film. I am serious, if you haven't seen this movie, go get it immediately. this movie is the absolute winner of every category in my book. i remember seeing this for the first time when it was on HBO in 1999. I must have watched it 20 times that week. i went and bought the VHS tape and when the DVD came out i had it immediately. this movie is amazing.
rcade This film was entertaining and fast-moving when it dealt with the world of art forgery. The scenes depicting how a brilliant forger (Jason Patric) created a "lost Rembrandt" were amazing -- I loved how he bought black-market 160-year-old lead white paint so its radioactive half-life would be down to zero. When the movie strays into romance and other areas, it wasn't as deft. Rod Steiger was completely wasted as Patric's ailing father, a minor character who doesn't even rate an on-camera scene in the second half of the film. In some ways this was for the best -- you could put a neon sign around his neck that read "I'm really really sick and keeping it a secret!" and be more subtle than Steiger's performance. The most real thing about this film was forgery, oddly enough, and it was Incognito's saving grace.
