This would be an excellent companion piece with Before The Devil Knows You're Dead, which is also centered around a pair of brothers who get in over their heads as criminals. It's a really enjoyable film and I was surprised by Colin Farrell's wonderful performance, playing against his usual tough-guy type. Of course, Ewan MacGregor is excellent as always. I haven't enjoyed Woody Allen's comedies in quite some time but he's got a flair for noir-ish suspense stories, and I hope it's a genre he'll continue exploring.
