Premise
The Rat Pack rob a casino.

Who should watch
Rat Pack fans.

Thoughts
It was a bit slow, but fun. Despite the number in the title, the movie only focused on the big four. Basically, it was an excuse to show off the musical skills, camraderie and chemistry of the Rat Pack.

The movie was also darker than I expected. I especially liked the storyline when the step-father discovered the heist and demanded his share, thus setting up a funny ending. I wonder how much of the ending of the original 'Italian Job' was drawn from this movie's ending?

What I would change
Not bothered with the darker subplots.
