Kevin Spacey has two wives, and cops follow him around and he does 'zaney' things to get away from them so hes can blahc ahclas....sorry. Lost my interest even talking about it.
I think if this had been based on a ture story the events would have seemed a little more intersting. Kevin Spacey plays a mastermind of a criminal, who is shared by his wife and her sister.
The only known Irish person in this film that I recognised was Colin Farrell, who pla... read more
Kevin Spacey here takes on the role of a lovable Irish gangster with a tendency to have his face on the media and to the chagrin of the police - evade the local constablury with clever and edgy twists and talk. A Surprising crime / comedy, its not Lock Stock but I love Irish base... read more
In Ordinary Decent Criminal, Kevin Spacey plays Michael Lynch, a clever criminal who pulls off daring heists, enjoys outsmarting the cops, looks superb in his black hood and other sorts of attention-grabbing face gear, has a bizarre ménage- a- trois with his wife and her sister..... read more
It plays like, "The Sting" (1973) meets the IRA. Kevin Spacey does an excellent job of playing a cool headed criminal who doesn't show emotion, but I'm not that kind of role makes the best cinema. In addition, the amount of coaching on the accurate Irish brogue really is doubled ... read more

Kevin Spacey is so sexy, especially in this movie. It's my #1 favorite of his, I could watch it over & over again!
LOL I didn't think this was going to be a comedy too!
& OI! They had th say for FOOK sake! (never gets old! & I hear it at work al the time!)
You'd think with that cast it would be good. But no, it really isn't. Not to mention the fact that it was totally ripping off The General during a good portion of it.
(It) highlights not so much the crime lord's messianic bent, but Spacey's. Full Review
The best thing that can be said of the picture is that it does have a few cute moments. Full Review
I can only imagine one thing worse than Kevin Spacey trying on an Irish accent, and that's sultry Linda Fiorentino doing the same thing. Full Review
Technically and artistically inept.
