  • Summary

  • I’m often asked what my favourite con artist movie is and I always have a different answer. 

    Usually, I’ll say Ridley Scott’s Matchstick Men or David Mamet’s House of Games. 

    If I’m feeling a little pretentious I might name drop Fellini’s Il Bidone or Robert Bresson’s Pickpocket.

    At the same time, I also have a soft spot for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Paper Moon, and Brother’s Bloom.

    However, if you were to ask me what the WORST con artist movie of all time was, I have an answer The Sting 2.

    Released a decade after the original with none of the original cast, The Sting 2 is a mess.

    With a nonsensical plot and a complete lack of charm, The Sting 2 is a forgotten film that deserves to be forgotten.

    On this podcast episode, I talk to Nick Mason from The Weekly Planet podcast about why I hate this movie so much and find out whether The Sting 2 deserves my disdain.

    (Throughout the interview I repeatedly refer to Mac Davies as Mac King. Mac Davies is one of the stars of The Sting 2. Mac King is a comedy magician I once saw eat a guinea pig on stage in Las Vegas. My apologies to Mr King.)
