The Brothers Bloom Looks Derivative, Awesome

The trailer has been released for The Brothers Bloom (October 24), a madcap caper movie about two grifters pulling one last big con, and getting the tables turned on them by their beautiful mark. Sound ten times of familiar? Who cares? Mark Ruffalo:

(Also starring Adrien Brody and Rachel Weisz, and by the director of Brick.) By my reckoning, this movie will be 80% Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, 17% Ocean's 11, and 3% The Darjeeling Limited.

I haven't seen the movie Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, but I've seen the Broadway musical and if it's anything like that it will be awesome. I think it looks pretty good.

Is that the fucking Band (or a cover thereof)?? Greatest movie ever by default.

You forgot a couple percent points for Confidence- also starring Rachel Weisz and the extra sexy Ed burns. That was a good Grifter movie.
