Audience Member Has some minor laughs but how could such a talented filmmaker as Louis Malle make a film as unoriginal and tasteless as this? Rating mostly for the talent involved. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Average movie about a bunch of bumbling robbers. Pretty boring with some useless characters.

Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not good, which is sad to see since there are quite a few well-established actors in front of the camera and a powerhouse director behind it. Crackers tries to be one of these heist comedies, like a smaller scale Ocean's 11, but lacks any sense of wit or style and ends up being just bland and boring.
