Hours after his release from prison, Jesus Quintana pairs up with fellow misfits Petey and Marie for a freewheeling joyride of petty crime and romance.
There's a couple of laughs to see you through, but this feels more like a montage of scenes tacked together to form a "plot." Turturro, Cannavale and Tautou are great, as is Hamm; but the rest of the cast are lackluster. Coming off Turturro's Name of the Rose (which was perfection) I had hopes for this, but was disappointed. Unless you're a diehard fan of Turturro, watch something else - there are better ways to spend your time.
