Editorial Review:
When professional grifter Jake Vig (Edward Burns) chooses the wrong mark in The King (Dustin Hoffman), he is given two choices: pull off a near impossible heist or lose his life. Needing all the help he can get, Jake brings in beautiful con artist Lily (Rachel We isz) and a mixed group of "professionals." Nonetheless, with The King riding him and a pesky Special Agent (Andy Garcia) on his tai l, Jake and his team look to have the odds stacked against them.
Confidence Reviews:
Confidence-Great movie from a great cast 
2009-10-22 - This is one of my favorite movies. Story moves ahead briskly with a cast that just delivers from start to finish. Sound track is terrific but the ending song from Coldplay (Clocks) is not on the sound track of the movie CD!!! Had to but it as a single from iTunes (this is my only complaint)! Must see movie..............st
Low-rent caper film 
2009-10-03 - The Bottom Line:
Between the lackluster plotting, anemic acting (with the exception of Dustin Hoffman, who's a little annoying but certainly not boring) and the sad feeling of the film merely going through the motions, Confidence gives potential viewers almost no reason to watch the film when there are many far better movies about con men (e.g. The Sting, The Spanish Prisoner, House of Games, even Matchstick Men) out there.
2/4
Great grifter flick 
2009-07-18 - On par with 'The Grifters'. Well done. Plus Dustin plays a very mean bad guy.
con games and LA crime 
2009-04-13 - This movie is one of those fast action fast talking films
like a Paul Newman con/ hustle film. You never know who is going to get his until the very end. Dustin Huffman isn't as believable as the bad crime boss
as you might think he should be, but Rachel Weisz and Edward Burns deliver the plot.
The end leaves you wondering if the people involved won't begin to come back at them in the future?
The movie is a Teacher 
2009-04-07 - This movie will teach you to be confident, team work, and of course, how to CON and Lie
