I love this film. While not a Demi Moore fan, she does an outstanding job as one of the key characters to this exciting film regarding love and revenge. Michael Caine is said to never have taken on a film he didn't like. Michael Caine, of course, is top drawyer in acting. If you love high stakes with diamonds, if you love a film that makes you think in the end, this is your film. "Will you be a giver or will you be a taker?" A key sentence in this film and for our lives. Will you be a taker or a giver? It's up to you!

A good movie but some of the dialog is hard to understand. Late in the movie when the main characters meet in the sewer one can barely make out what they are saying and these lines explain the main reason for the robbery. Normally one would click on closed captioning and use that to follow the barely understood parts but this DVD only supports Spanish. Come on guys, if you sell the movie in America then make English one of the options.

This is a well-done suspense drama, but the pace is too slow for it to be considered a "thriller". As a long-time Michael Caine fan, I enjoyed his performance, and I was pleasantly surprised at Demi Moore's believable performance as the dauntless aspirant to the upper management ranks of her company only to be thwarted by the "old boy" network (British style). Is this a FLAWLESS suspenseful inside theft movie? No, but it's far from the worst, in my opinion. I enjoyed it because it withheld the uncovering of the final plot twists to the very end, although they were presented in a "too hurried" fashion and, therefore, lost some of their effect. Certainly the movie has some flaws, but I liked it. I rate it 3.5 stars.
Flawless is an intricate, intelligent and deliberately-paced heist film whose overall quality seems surprising given the film's low-key limited release. Michael Caine is particularly good in his portrayal as instigator of the crime and subsequent center of controversy. And I'm pleased to say that this is not another shallow career vehicle as some other films in the genre have been lately , the elaborate story and intricate details are likely to be most enjoyed by old-school genre fans who can appreciate attention to detail and a deeper meaning than the theft itself. And while the film doesn't completely live up to the high standards of it's title with it's slow-boil tension, iffy accents and general lack of pizazz, it's a worthwhile and well-acted watch none-the-less. Recommended; 3.5 stars.Read full review
